Thick paperback 640 pp. Ill. in colour and BW, maps of 19th century canal and railway networks. Index, bibliography. Note: The Sunday Times wrote about this book: "Without doubt, this will serve as the standard one-volume history of Britain for the rest of the century." ... and TST was right. Note LT: The chapter about the dissolution/suppression of more than 560 monasteries (1536-1540) under Henry VIII is elaborated and gives the real reasons for it: no more interference from Rome, the King's bankrupcy, appease the lay nobility.
