This absorbing and richly informative atlas charts the expansive history of Britain, from the days of the Celts and the Roman Conquest to the present, offering authoritative coverage of England, Ireland, Scotland, and Wales, as well as the rise and decline of the overseas empire. The great political and military milestones of British history (such as Hastings and Crecy, Blenheim and Waterloo, and Passchendale and Dunkirk) are covered, in addition to important social, economic, political and religious perspectives throughout centuries of history. A series of fascinating new maps explores Britain in the 1990s: the economy, the environment, immigration into Britain, the prospect of union with the European Economic Community, the conflict in Iraq, and recent intervention in Bosnia.

Text all on maps,which are full-page.Very easy to read.Great to use while reading British history books.Third edition[2002] has 74 new maps,covering the years since the first edition[1968],but older maps not revised,though archaeology has made advances,e.g. in the first 16 maps:50 B.C.-1066 A.D. Similarly later maps on the early economy, the "Black Death"[Plague] of 1333-1369,etc. are a little out -of-date.But the clarity & range of this atlas highly recommend it.
