About the book

Green's A Short History of the English People presents English history through the development of society and ordinary life rather than concentrating solely on monarchs, wars and political institutions. Green places particular emphasis on social change, religion, literature and the growth of political freedom. His lively narrative helped make history accessible to a wider readership and established the book as one of the most popular historical works of the nineteenth century.
