A People’s History of England by A. L. Morton

From the building of Stonehenge to the horrors of the Battle of the Somme, A. L. Morton provides an overview of historical development in Britain that both grips the reader and interprets such profound changes as the break-up of feudalism, the civil war of the seventeenth century and the industrial revolution. Fascinating for both the general reader and the historian alike, A People’s History of England – which has been continuously in print for more than fifty years – is the indispensable work on the subject.
