Essential read November 27, 2003

As a 17 year old in school, i read this book outside of my curriculum, and found it completely fascinating. Everyone in this country should know our imperial history, whether they study it in school or not. The backround information also allows you to make connections with other topics and draw on current events of the time, something i knew next to nothing about before reading the book!
Good Overview September 29, 2001

Writing and overview of a long period of History that looks at many different societies is not easy. If the author has to pitch the book at A-Level students the task is even heavier. However, this book does the job! It is a good introduction to a massive topic - not dull, not complicated, simply informative.
