Recenzii
Simon Jenkins, as ever, writes with clarity and insight
Jenkins has a journalist's ear for the outrageous
There's much here to interest and stimulate
Comprehensive and informative
Particularly good ... The old familiar identities of English, Scots, Welsh and Irish are not what they used to be
Praise for A Short History of England:'A lucid and handsomely illustrated narrative
Jenkins is one of the liveliest commentators at work in Britain, always worth reading and pleasingly contrarian
This is traditional, kings-and-things, great-men history with all its dates and famous quotations in place ... Jenkins has a newspaper columnist's aphoristic verve
A characteristically bold, wry, fluent, combative gallop through English history
Full of good writing and lively anecdotes ... Food for thought
Immediately accessible
Where Jenkins excels is in his very journalistic approach ... The historical events are joined up, and work as narrative
Hugely important to the history of the British Isles yet commonly misunderstood and neglected by contemporary audiences, the story of the Celts is finally told in a coherent and engaging fashion by the bestselling author of A Short History of England
