The Empire Strikes Back?

The Impact of Imperialism on Britain from the Mid-Nineteenth Century

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

'The Empire Strikes Back?' injects the empire back into the domestic history of modern Britain. It takes as its premise the idea that the empire was integral to British state and society -- not something off stage, which can be safely left to African and Indian history.
