Athelstan The Making of England Tom Holland

Summary The formation of England happened against the odds—the division of the country into rival kingdoms, the assaults of the Vikings, the precarious position of the island on the edge of the known world. But King Alfred ensured the survival of Wessex, his son Eadweard expanded it, and his grandson Æthelstan finally united Mercia and Wessex, conquered Northumbria and became Rex totius Britanniae.

{IPG} William I England's Conqueror Marc Morris

Summary On Christmas Day 1066, William duke of Normandy was crowned in Westminster, the first Norman king of England. The ceremony was a disaster: Norman soldiers, mishearing English shouts of acclamation as treachery, torched and looted the surrounding buildings. To chroniclers who wrote with the benefit of hindsight, it was an omen of catastrophes to come. During the reign of William the Conqueror, England experienced greater and more seismic change than ever before or since. The old ruling elites were swept away, while rebellion was met with overwhelming force, laying waste huge swathes of the country. Society was reordered, hundreds of castles constructed across the kingdom and every major abbey and cathedral torn down and rebuilt. The map of England itself was redrawn, Penguin UK giving greater power than ever before to the king.

{IPG} Edward II The Terrors of Kingship Christopher Given-Wilson

Summary The reign of Edward II (1307-27) was a series of total disasters, making him unsuccessful to an extent almost without equal. He failed to be kingly, preferring ditching and cart-racing to jousting and falconry. His reign was convulsed by rebellion and attempts to reform the king's behavior. In an attempt to throw off the specter of his regal father, Edward I, he invaded Scotland and suffered catastrophic defeat. After 20 ruinous years, betrayed and abandoned by most of his nobles and by his wife and her lover, Edward was imprisoned in Berkeley Castle where he was murdered. Christopher Given-Wilson's remarkable book gives a glimpse into the abyss: the terrors of kingship.

Summary Edward III lived through bloody and turbulent times. His father was deposed by his mother and her lover when he was still a teenager; a third of England's population was killed by the Black Death midway through his reign; and the intractable Hundred Years War with France began under his leadership. Yet Edward managed to rule England for 50 years, and was viewed as a paragon of kingship in the eyes of both his contemporaries and later generations. Venerated as the victor of Sluys and Crécy and the founder of the Order of the Garter, he was regarded with awe even by his enemies. But he lived too long, and was ultimately condemned to see thirty years of conquests reversed in less than five.

Pollard, Edward, who squandered his undoubted talents in a frenzy of sexual and epicurean excess, was a man of limited vision. Ultimately, his failure was dynastic: barely two months after his death in April 1483, his young son and heir was usurped by Edward's youngest brother, Richard III. Contributor Bio Penguin UK A. J.

Given the new title 'Duke of Windsor' and essentially sent into exile, he remained a visible skeleton in the royal cupboard until his death in 1972 and he haunts the house of Windsor to this day. Drawing on unpublished material, notably correspondence with his most loyal (though much tried) supporter Winston Churchill, Piers Brendon's superb biography traces Edward's tumultuous public and private life from bright young prince to troubled sovereign, from wartime Penguin UK colonial governor to sad but glittering expatriate. 9780241196410 Pub Date: 9/28/16 Contributor Bio Ship Date: 9/28/16 Piers Brendon is the author of The Dark Valley: A Panorama of the 1930s and The Decline and Fall of the $24.95/$27.99 Can./£12.99 UK British Empire.

Mary I The Daughter of Time John Edwards

Summary Mary I (1553-58) became England's ruler on the unexpected death of her brother Edward VI. Her short reign is one of the great potential turning points in the country's history. As a convinced Catholic and the wife of Philip II, king of Spain and the most powerful of all European monarchs, Mary could have completely changed her country's orbit, making it a province of the Habsburg Empire and obedient again to Rome. These extraordinary possibilities are fully dramatized in John Edward's superb short biography. The real Mary I has almost disappeared under the great mass of Protestant propaganda that buried her reputation during her younger sister, Elizabeth I's reign. But what if she had succeeded?

Summary George IV spent most of his life waiting to become king, first a pleasure-loving and rebellious Prince of Wales during the 60-year reign of his father, George III, and for 10 years as Prince Regent, when his father went mad.

Summary The best-selling author of The Battle , Alessandro Barbero, was asked which action saved Wellington at Waterloo prior to the arrival of the Prussians.

{IPG} The Secret Queen Eleanor Talbot, the Woman Who Put Richard III on the Throne John Ashdown-Hill

Summary When Edward IV died in 1483, the Yorkist succession was called into question by doubts about the legitimacy of his son, Edward (one of the "Princes in the Tower"). The crown passed to Edward's undoubtedly legitimate younger brother, Richard, Duke of Gloucester. But those who believed in the legitimacy of Edward IV’s children viewed Richard III’s accession with suspicion. From the day when Edward IV married Eleanor, or pretended to do so, the House of York confronted an uncertain future. This book argues that Eleanor Talbot was married to Edward IV, therefore Edward’s subsequent marriage to Elizabeth Woodville was bigamous, making her children illegitimate. It also offers a solution to one of history's great mysteries, by putting forward groundbreaking new evidence that The History Press calls into question the identity of the "bones in the urn" in Westminster Abbey, believed for centuries 9780750968461 to be the remains of the "Princes in the Tower."

The Tudor kings and queens remain the most well-known and fascinating English dynasty. The enormous increase in the quantity of surviving documents from Henry VIII’s reign onwards means that the Tudor period is the first in English history to be so thoroughly documented in manuscript form.

Insurrection Henry VIII, Thomas Cromwell and the Pilgrimage of Grace Susan Loughlin

Summary Autumn 1536. Both Katherine of Aragon and Anne Boleyn are dead. Henry VIII has married Jane Seymour, and still awaits his longed-for male heir. Disaffected conservatives in England may have seen an opportunity for a return to Rome and an end to religious experimentation. However, Thomas Cromwell has other ideas. In August, the Lutheran influenced Ten Articles of the Anglican Church was published and the dissolution of the monasteries had started. The obstinate monarch, enticed by monastic wealth, is determined not to change course. Fear and resentment has been unleashed in northern England in the largest, spontaneous uprising against a Tudor monarch. That rebellion is the Pilgrimage of Grace, in which 30,000 men have taken up arms against the king. This book reviews The History Press the evidence for that opposition and examines the abundant examples of religiously motivated 9780750967334 dissent. It also highlights the rhetoric, reward and retribution used by the Crown to enforce its policy.

Shakespeare's Bastard The Life of Sir William Davenant Simon Andrew Stirling

Summary Sir William Davenant (1606-1668)—Poet Laureate and English Civil War hero—is one of the most influential and neglected figures in the history of British theater. He introduced "opera," actresses, scenes, and the proscenium arch to the English stage. Narrowly escaping execution for his Royalist activities during the English Civil War, he revived theatrical performances in London, right under Oliver Cromwell’s nose. Davenant was known to boast over a glass of wine that he wrote "with the very spirit" of Shakespeare and was happy to be thought of as Shakespeare’s son. By recounting the story of his eventful life backwards, through his many trials and triumphs, this biography culminates with a fresh examination of the issue of Davenant’s paternity.

{IPG} Custom and Commercialisation in English Rural Society Revisiting Tawney and Postan J. P. Bowen, A. T. Brown

Summary English rural society underwent fundamental changes between the thirteenth and eighteenth centuries with urbanization, commercialization and industrialization producing new challenges and opportunities for inhabitants of rural communities. However, our understanding of this period has been shaped by the compartmentalization of history into medieval and early-modern specialisms and by the debates surrounding the transition from feudalism to capitalism and landlord-tenant relations. Inspired by the classic works of Tawney and Postan, this collection of essays examines their relevance to historians today, distinguishing between their contrasting approaches to the University Of Hertfordshire pre-industrial economy and exploring the development of agriculture and rural industry; changes in Press land and property rights; and competition over resources in the English countryside. 9781909291447 Pub Date: 2/1/16 Contributor Bio Ship Date: 2/1/16 James P.

Set Adrift Upon the World The Sutherland Clearances James Hunter

Summary They would be better dead, they said, than set adrift upon the world. But set adrift they were – thousands of them, their communities destroyed, their homes demolished and burned. Such were the Sutherland Clearances, an extraordinary episode, involving the deliberate depopulation of much of a Scottish county. What was done in the course of that episode was planned and carried out by a small group of men and one woman. Most of those involved wrote a great deal about their actions, intentions and feelings, and much of it has been preserved. There are no equivalent collections of material from those whose communities ceased to exist. Their feelings and fears are harder to access, but they are by no means irrecoverable. In this book James Hunter tells the story of the Birlinn Ltd Sutherland Clearances.

Summary In the 1830s and 1840s the district of Glendale on the island of Skye was swamped by immigrants cleared from other north Skye estates. The resultant overcrowding and overuse of land caused simmering discontent – not against the incomers, but against the landowners, who regarded their tenants as no more than chattels.

Assembling Enclosure Transformations in the Rural Landscape of Post-Medieval North-East England Ronan O'Donnell

Summary The landscape history of North-East England has not been studied as much as other parts of the country. This book begins to fill this gap by utilizing Actor-Network Theory (ANT) to re-assess the familiar topics of enclosure and improvement. It reveals the contribution of local 'actors' – including landowners, tenants and the landscape itself – to these 'processes'. In so doing it transforms our understanding of the way in which the landscape of Northumberland was created during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries and carries wider implications for how we might approach enclosure in other parts of the country.

{IPG} Wealth or Poverty? Jane Austen's Novels Explored Stephen Mahony

Summary Money is significant in Jane Austen’s novels. Her characters worry about it, scheme for it, and, of course, spend it. Money is not simply a way of placing people: it propels plots, adds drama, and tells us much about an individual’s nature and morals. Taking the novels as his starting point, Stephen Mahony looks at the wealth and social standing of Austen’s characters in relation to the economic background of the day, giving us real insight into their aspirations and motivations. What did a servant earn? Just how poor was Miss Bates? What were the pay and conditions of a midshipman like William Price? What would it cost to house, clothe and feed the entire Bennet family? And how much would Elizabeth Bennet need to live comfortably if she hadn’t married Darcy?

Summary From award-winning poet and one of the most important Northern Irish writers and critics of his generation, Peter McDonald, comes an earthy and sensual new collection.

Several Deer Adam Crothers

Summary Addressing themes of destruction, consumption, misogyny, gods, sex, form, failure and rock ’n’ roll, Several Deer is the debut collection by a Northern Irish writer as much indebted to Bob Dylan and Lana Del Rey as to Emily Dickinson and George Herbert. The poems – many of them sonnets and doomed attempts at clear-eyed love poems – are suspicious as to the legitimacy of the big beautiful transcendent moment, believing it false comfort. Adrift from a poet they don’t much like, they console themselves with rhythm, with rhyme, and with riffs on literary and pop culture. Their speaker laments the state of the world while impotently aware that as a straight white male he’s part of the Carcanet Press Ltd. problem; easily sidetracked and keen to be soundtracked, he breaks much of what he touches. 9781784102449 Pub Date: 2/1/16 Several Deer charts the vain effort to undo the damage. It’s a book about the gap between what one Ship Date: 2/1/16 should think and what one actually thinks, between sounding good and being good. It doesn’t take $15.99/$18.99 Can./£9.99 its sadness seriously. It listens to the hits. UK Discount Code: LON Contributor Bio Trade Paperback Adam Crothers was born in Belfast in 1984.

Letters Against the Firmament is a user’s report on the end of the world, a treatise against Tory terror, a proposal for a new zodiac, a defence of poetry, a hex against the devourers of planet earth.

Because Arthur is one of the best-known kings in world history, whose reign was viewed as a golden age, an epoch in which to center tales of right and wrong, of faith and faithlessness, and of courage and falseness, the moral and spiritual values of which continue to resonate today not least among those who dismiss Arthur as a late literary construct.

{IPG} Alfred the Great Barbara Yorke

Summary Why is Alfred "the Great?" A simple answer is that he has been seen as a man who saved England, invented English identity and pioneered English as a written language. He is the first Englishman for whom a biography survives, so we know more about Alfred and his ideals than we do for most people who lived over 1,000 years ago. A slightly longer answer would say that things are a bit more complicated, and that one reason Alfred seems to be so "great" was that he made sure we were told that he was. To get the measure of Alfred we need to look at what he actually managed to achieve. Can we resurrect the "real" King Alfred? Even if we have to part company with some of the Victorian adulation, we are still left with a pretty impressive and surprising person.

Spynest British and German Espionage from Neutral Holland 1914 -1918 Edwin Ruis

Summary After World War I broke out, the port city of Rotterdam in particular became a prolific breeding ground for secret agents and spies. The neutrality of the Netherlands, its geographical position in between the most powerful warring nations, and its proximity to the Western Front meant that British and German secret services both chose Holland as their main base for spying operations on each other. On neutral Dutch ground, newly established intelligence services learned the spy trade.

Tudor Tales Dave Tonge

Summary A vivacious collection of stories from Tudor times, handed down through generations of storytellers

People long ago were no different from us: they laughed at the same things we do today, a fact that can be seen in Tudor folk tales. These were the stories that were told in alehouses and market places in days gone by and later collected in "chapbooks", the cheap print of the period. These entertaining stories are gleaned from these early sources, and are presented here alongside brief introductions and select court records from the time to help set them in context. This is not a book about Kings and Queens, but rather the "common sort", from quarreling scolds to coney-catchers —cheats plying their trade in the very tavern yards where the tales the author now tells were shared long ago.

No More Champagne Churchill and His Money David Lough

Summary The popular image of Churchill—grandson of a duke, drinking champagne and smoking a cigar— conjures up a man of wealth and substance. The reality is that Britain’s most celebrated 20th-century statesman lived for most of his life on a financial cliff-edge. Only fragments of information about his finances, or their impact on his public life, have previously emerged. With the help of unprecedented access to Churchill’s private records, David Lough creates the first fully researched narrative of Churchill’s private finances and business affairs. As he reveals the scale of Churchill’s financial risk-taking, combined with an ability to talk or write himself out of the tightest of corners, the links between the private man and public figure become clear.

Summary At age 25, Elizabeth II became Britain’s 40th monarch and vowed to dedicate her life to service and duty on behalf of her country. She is the constitutional monarch of 16 sovereign states, head of the 53 member Commonwealth of Nations, Supreme Governor of the Church of England, and head of the armed forces. Most notably, however, on September 9, 2015, she became the longest reigning monarch in British history. She has consistently adapted in order to remain relevant, while devotedly upholding the age-old traditions of the monarchy. Although there have only been six British female monarchs, it cannot be argued that some of the most enlightened times in history have occurred during periods of queenship.

Summary William II (1087-1100), or William Rufus, will always be most famous for his death: killed by an arrow while out hunting, perhaps through accident or perhaps murder. But, as John Gillingham makes clear in this biography, as the son and successor to William the Conqueror it was William Rufus who had to establish permanent Norman rule. A ruthless, irascible man, he frequently argued acrimoniously with his older brother Robert over their father's inheritance—but he also handed out effective justice, leaving as his legacy one of the most extraordinary of all medieval buildings, Westminster Hall.

James I Scotland's King of England John Matusiak

Summary Few kings have been more savagely caricatured or grossly misunderstood than England’s first Stuart. Yet, as this new biography demonstrates, the modern tendency to downplay his defects and minimize the longer term consequences of his reign has gone too far. For, in spite of genuine idealism and flashes of considerable resourcefulness, James I remains a perplexing figure. A flawed, if well-meaning, foreigner in a rapidly changing and divided kingdom, his passionate commitment to time-honoured principles of government would, ironically, prove his undoing, as England edged unconsciously towards the crossroads and the shadow of the Thirty Years War descended like a pall upon Europe.

{IPG} Henry V From Playboy Prince to Warrior King Anne Curry

Summary Henry V's invasion of France, in August 1415, represented a huge gamble. As heir to the throne, he had been a failure, cast into the political wilderness amid rumors that he planned to depose his father. Despite a complete change of character as king—founding monasteries, persecuting heretics, and enforcing the law to its extremes—little had gone right since. He was insecure in his kingdom, his reputation low. On the eve of his departure for France, he uncovered a plot by some of his closest associates to remove him from power. Agincourt was a battle that Henry should not have won—but he did, and the rest is history. Within five years, he was heir to the throne of France. Anne Curry explores how Henry's hyperactive efforts to expunge his past failures, and his experience of Penguin UK crisis—which threatened to ruin everything he had struggled to achieve—defined his kingship, and 9780141978710 how his astonishing success at Agincourt transformed his standing in the eyes of his contemporaries, Pub Date: 4/1/16 and of all generations to come.

Stephen The Reign of Anarchy Carl Watkins

Summary Known as 'the anarchy', the reign of Stephen (1135-1141) saw England plunged into a civil war that illuminated the fatal flaw in the powerful Norman monarchy: without rules ordering succession, conflict within William the Conqueror's family was inevitable. But there was another problem: Stephen himself. With the nobility of England and Normandy anxious about the prospect of a world without the tough love of the old king Henry I, Stephen styled himself a political panacea—a promise he was unable to keep. Unable to transcend his flawed claim to the throne, Stephen's actions betrayed his uneasiness. As Watkins shows here, the resulting violence throughout England arose from the struggle to navigate a new and turbulent kind of politics.

Summary George, Duke of Clarence has had so little written about him, that historians face many questions: Where was he born? What was he like? What set him against his brother Edward IV? He played a central role in the Wars of the Roses—but was he for York or Lancaster? Is the story of his drowning in a barrel of wine—as in Richard III —true? And was "false, fleeting, perjur'd Clarence" in some ways the role model behind the 16th-century defamation of Richard III? Finally, where was he buried and what became of his body?

Summary One of the most catastrophic reigns in British history

The short, action-packed reign of James II (1685-88) is generally seen as one of the most catastrophic in British history. James managed, despite having access to tremendous reserves of good will and deference, to so alienate his supporters that he had to flee for his life. And yet, most of that life was spent not as king but first as heir to Charles II, as Duke of York (after whom New York is named) and then in the last part of his life as the first Jacobite "Pretender," starting a problem that would haunt Britain's rulers for generations.

Shakespeare in Ten Acts Gordon McMullan, Zoe Wilcox

Summary Four hundred years after Shakespeare’s death, it is difficult to imagine a time when he was not considered a genius. But those 400 years have seen his plays banished and bowdlerized, faked and forged, traded and translated, re-mixed and re-cast.

Each performance discussed here holds up a mirror to the era in which it was performed. The first stage appearance by a woman in 1660 and a black actor playing Othello in 1825 were landmarks for British Library Publishing society as well as for Shakespeare’s reputation. The book explores productions as diverse as Peter 9780712356312 Brook’s legendary A Midsummer Night’s Dream , Mark Rylance’s ‘Original Practices’ Twelfth Night , and a Pub Date: 7/1/16 Shakespeare forgery staged at Drury Lane in 1796, among many others.

Peace and War: Britain in 1914 Nigel Jones

Summary A gripping portrait of life in Britain in a year that shook Europe to its foundations

1914 dawned with Britain at peace, albeit troubled by faultlines within and threats without: Ireland trembled on the brink of civil war; suffragette agitation was assuming an ever more violent hue; and suspicions of Germany's ambitions bred a paranoia expressed in a rash of "invasion scare" literature. Then when shots rang out in Sarajevo on June 28th, they set in motion a tumble of diplomatic dominos that led to Britain declaring war on Germany. Nigel Jones depicts every facet of a year that changed Britain for ever. From gun-running in Ulster to an attack by suffragettes on a Velasquez painting in the National Gallery; from the launch of HMHS Britannic to cricketer J.T. Head of Zeus Hearne's 3,000th first-class wicket; from the opening of London's first nightclub to the embarking for 9781781853351 Belgium of the BEF, he traces the events of a momentous year, its benign domestic beginnings to its Pub Date: 9/1/15 descent into the nightmare of European war.

Life in the 1950s Mike Brown

Summary The 1950s began in the shadow of War. In Britain, food was still rationed as the country strove to pay off the huge debts that were the legacy of war. However, by the end of the decade the British had "never had it so good," as prime Minister Harold MacMillan told them.

How did people spend their new-found wealth, what they ate, wore, watched, and listened to; the stories and people who made the headlines—Royals, politicians, and stars of music and screen, in an age overshadowed by the Cold War. The book will appeal to those who lived through it, and to those The History Press wishing to know more about life for their parents and grandparents. 9781841655390 Pub Date: 9/1/14 Ship Date: 9/1/14 Contributor Bio $11.95/$13.95 Can.

Summary The scandalous life of England's most notorious libertine, the Earl of Rochester, portrayed by Johnny Depp in The Libertine Restoration England witnessed an extraordinary flowering of literature, music, architecture, and science. At the center of the burgeoning cultural life of the age was John Wilmot, Earl of Rochester. A peerlessly witty satirist, Rochester epitomized the manners of the court of Charles II.

Rochester died of syphilis at the age of just 33, leaving behind him a mystery as to the true nature of his character. This is a compelling portrait of a remarkable yet complex man and of a cultural golden age that often spilled over into depravity, and the only biography of the Earl to date to use the uncensored poetry.

{IPG} Charles I An Abbreviated Life Mark Kishlansky

Summary The most despised monarch in Britain's historical memory

The tragedy of Charles I dominates one of the most strange and painful periods in British history as the whole island tore itself apart over a deadly, entangled series of religious and political disputes. In Mark Kishlansky's brilliant account it is never in doubt that Charles created his own catastrophe, but he was nonetheless opposed by men with far fewer scruples and less consistency who for often quite contradictory reasons conspired to destroy him. This is a remarkable portrait of one of the most talented, thoughtful, loyal, moral, artistically alert, and yet, somehow, disastrous of all of Penguin UK England's rulers. 9780141979830 Pub Date: 11/1/15 Contributor Bio Ship Date: 11/1/15 Mark Kishlansky is Frank Baird Jr Professor of History at Harvard University and one of the world's $19.95/$21.99 Can./£10.99 UK leading scholars on Stuart England.

Edward VI The Last Boy King Stephen Alford

Summary The Peter Pan of English monarchy

Edward VI, the only son of Henry VIII, became king at the age of nine and died wholly unexpectedly at the age of 15.

England's last child monarch, Edward would have led his country in a quite different 9780141976914 direction to the catastrophic one caused by his death.

George VI The Dutiful King Philip Ziegler

Summary A dutiful king and reluctant public figure

If Ethelred was notoriously "Unready" and Alfred "Great," King George VI should bear the title of "George the Dutiful." Throughout his life, George dedicated himself to the pursuit of what he thought he ought to be doing rather than what he wanted to do. Inarticulate and loathing any sort of public appearances, he accepted that it was his destiny to figure conspicuously in the public eye, gritted his teeth, battled his crippling stammer, and got on with it. He was not born to be king, but he made an admirable one, and was the figurehead of the nation at the time of its greatest trial, World War II.

{IPG} Henry VIII The Quest for Fame John Guy

Summary One of the most charismatic leaders to sit on the English throne

Charismatic, insatiable, and cruel, Henry VIII was, as John Guy shows, a king who became mesmerized by his own legend—and in the process destroyed and remade England. Said to be a "pillager of the commonwealth," this most instantly recognizable of kings remains a figure of extreme contradictions: magnificent and vengeful; a devout traditionalist who oversaw a cataclysmic rupture with the church in Rome; a talented, towering figure who nevertheless could not bear to meet people's eyes when he talked to them. In this revealing new account, John Guy looks behind the Penguin UK mask into Henry's mind to explore how he understood the world and his place in it—from his isolated 9780141977126 upbringing and the blazing glory of his accession, to his desperate quest for fame and an heir and Pub Date: 11/1/15 the terrifying paranoia of his last, agonizing, 54-inch-waisted years.

In 1455, John Howard was an untitled and relatively obscure Suffolk gentleman. At the time of his death at the Battle of Bosworth Field in 1485 he was Earl Marshal, Duke of Norfolk, Lord Admiral and a very rich man (and the current Duke of Norfolk is his direct descendant).

Summary A compelling and groundbreaking study of Henry VIII as a deeply flawed individual, this book vigorously challenges old assumptions and new interpretations alike—now in paperback
