5.0 out of 5 stars History in Bite-Sized chunks, 21 Oct 2008
What a great, fun and manageable way to remember the most salient points of British history that we've all forgotten from school. It takes all the boring bits out and covers history from Roman Britain to the second world war. It's easy to dip in and out of and the perfect accompaniment to the brilliant I Before E that I bought last year. This book makes history fun!

5.0 out of 5 stars Worth getting!, 19 Jan 2009
I was really impressed with this book. It's nice and easy to read and covers the important parts of History worth knowing about. I was very impressed when I saw it included events like the Amritsar Massacre, although not something that is widely known, it shows the important turning point in the Indians attitude towards the British Raj - something which people should come to know about! Definitely worth getting as it's easy to dip in and out of!

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant bit of History, 19 Jan 2009
I'm hoping to go to University in September to study History, and i wanted a book that would cover British history (as that is my particular interest) yet i did not want a history book that would take me ages to read. I'm very glad i found this book, it covers everything right from the Roman era to WW2. I would thoroughly recommend this to anyone who has a keen interest in British history. It is a quick read but very informative at the same time.
