Book
The British Empire
The British Empire surveys the growth, government and eventual contraction of Britain’s overseas empire. It follows the interaction of trade, naval power, settlement, conquest and administration across different regions, while considering the people who resisted, collaborated with or lived under imperial rule. The book places famous political and military episodes within the larger structures that connected Britain to colonies and dominions and shaped the empire’s global reach.
