A History of Britain, Volume 2: The Wars of the British 1603-1776 (History of Britain (Audio Renaissance))

As with all Schama's books the grand political narrative sweeps along on a sequence of anecdotes, vignettes and brilliant set pieces: the wonderfully racy, darkly humorous account of the death of the lord protector Oliver Cromwell; the sardonic portrait of British life in Madras and Calcutta; the horrors of the killing fields of Glencoe and Culloden."Simon Schama is the author of 'A History of Britain, Volume 2: The Wars of the British 1603-1776 (History of Britain (Audio Renaissance))', published 2001 under ISBN 9781559276375 and ISBN 1559276371.
