Medieval Britain: A Very Short Introduction, Paperback / softback Book

Paperback / softback

Description

First published as part of the best-selling The Oxford Illustrated History of Britain, John Gillingham and Ralph A.

Griffiths' Very Short Introduction to Medieval Britain covers the establishment of the Anglo-Norman monarchy in the early Middle Ages, through to England's failure to dominate the British Isles and France in the later Middle Ages.

Out of the turbulence came stronger senses of identity in Scotland, Wales, and Ireland.

Yet this was an age, too, of growing definition of Englishness and of a distinctive English cultural tradition. ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area.

These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly.

Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.
