The English have acquired ancestors by legend, conquest and migration. Here, in a single volume, is a fresh, completely up-to-date account of the long history of an island and its peoples; of its conquerors, kings and queens; of the social, the political and the cultural; of the mythological and the legendary, and of the extraordinarily true. This is the history of the English, and of how the stories they have told about themselves have shaped them.
