Enclyclopedia of Britain
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
This book is a must-have for any writer or reader who wants a comprehensive and sensible reference about Britain and the British.It's so easy to use this reference volume with it easy alphabetical format and thorough and concise explanations of 'all things British.'The book includes facts and lore about the countries of England, Wales, Ireland and Scotland. The author not only tells you specific facts about each subject, but why and how a specific item got its name.From British Actors to the Zulu War, this book has entertaining and critical information condensed into one handsome volume. Mr. Gascoine states in the overleaf "that I wrote this book because I needed it on my shelves."As a writer and an avid reader of 'factual books', I concur with him completely.
