Book, Cassell and Company, A history of the English-speaking peoples, Vol one: The birth of Britain, 1956
Based on the research of modern historians as well as a wealth of primary source material, Churchill's popular and readable A History of the English-Speaking Peoples was respected by scholars as well as the public in its day - a testament both to its integrity as a work of historical scholarship and its accessibility to laypeople. Churchill used primary sources to masterful effect, quoting directly from a range of documents, from Caesar's invasions of Britain to the beginning of the First World War, to provide valuable insights into those figures who played a leading role in British history. In the last of his epic four-volume account, Churchill begins at the end of the Napoleonic Wars and ends with the Boer War of 1902.Index, maps, p.395.non-fictionBased on the research of modern historians as well as a wealth of primary source material, Churchill's popular and readable A History of the English-Speaking Peoples was respected by scholars as well as the public in its day - a testament both to its integrity as a work of historical scholarship and its accessibility to laypeople.
