Summary

‘Roberts boldly dons Churchill’s own mantle, setting out to continue where Churchill’s four volumes left off, which was in 1901. The mantle fits … an advocate of Churchillian eloquence’ Mail on Sunday

Critics Review

A brilliant revisionist history of the English-speaking peoples which deserves to be put into the hands of every teenager

It is a patriotic history, as lively and partisan as Macaulay’s: full of detail, enriched by brilliant pen-portraits, opinionated and provocative. It will have some readers purring in happy agreement, and others tearing their hair in fury - Daily Telegraph

Magnificently provoking … a worthy successor to Churchill’s history of the same subject … this is a work of astonishing range and depth, combining as it does a polemical flair with sure-footed scholarship - New Statesman

Roberts has produced a brilliant revisionist history of the English-speaking peoples. The book is rich in vivid characterisations of the major players. This is an exuberant book, by one of the Anglosphere’s most accomplished historians - Literary Review
