Informative little book with all of Britain's major historical events explained. It's so easy to read and squeeze in a page or two between jobs. Brief and to the point.
This is just what I was looking for. I love history and learning the main and important facts, but sometimes I don't want to get too bogged down in a 400 page history book about a single event. Some topics interest me more than others, and I have plenty of history books on those subjects, so having history in 'bite-sized chunks' is perfect for me. Whether it's a historical event that fascinates me or not, I still want to learn about it and know the facts.

In this book, each event is a page long starting with the Roman Invasion of Britain, and ending with the formation of the United Nations.
I would certainly recommend this to someone who wants to learn but doesn't have time to read it all separately, or someone who is new to non-fiction history and wants a place to start.
