What is Britain?
Where lie its boundaries?
Why are they always changing?
Are we a small island or a big idea?
What will we look like next?
In Small Island: 12 Maps that Explain the History of Britain, Philip Parker answers these and other crucial questions about this country and its peoples.
By pondering our intertwined geography and history, he shows how the past has made Britain and how we might yet shape its future.
Charting the formation and then break-up of British rule, Small Island provides a richly entertaining canter through the country's past. An engrossing book, offering stimulating observations about our cultural evolution as well as predictions for Britain's future. * Independent *
