Summary

Since Alfred the Great united England in the 9th century CE, this northwestern European country has played a prominent role in world affairs. From its early days as the world's leading naval power—which enabled it to spread its influence over an area larger than one-fourth of the world's surface—to the period when it served as the center of the Industrial Revolution, England has long been one of the world's most influential countries. Newly updated and featuring striking full-color photographs, maps, and other accessible study features, England is a detailed exploration of the people, culture, history, geography, environment, economy, and government of this enduring nation.

Specifications

Full-color photographs. Facts at a glance. History at a glance. Full-color maps. Bibliography. Further reading. Index.
