Anatomy of a Nation
From an obscure, misty archipelago on the fringes of the Roman world to history's largest empire and originator of the world's mongrel, magpie language - this is Britain's past. To understand the dislocation and collapse, we must look back: to Britain's evolution, achievements, complexities and tensions. But, today, Britain is experiencing an acute trauma of identity, pulled simultaneously towards its European, Atlantic and wider heritages.
Most are not. In a ground-breaking new take on British identity, historian and barrister Dominic Selwood explores over 950,000 years of British history by examining 50 documents that tell the story of what makes Britain unique.Some of these documents are well-known. Each reveal something important about Britain and its people.
From Anglo-Saxon poetry, medieval folk music and the first Valentine's Day letter to the origin of computer code,
