Description

Brewer's Anthology of England and the English is an English 'parliament of voices' - from the patriotic and laudatory to the dissident and choleric. With attention focused as never before on England - the 'sleeping partner' of a loosening Union, and the definitions of 'England' and 'Britain' under increasing scrutiny, it offers a timely, thought-provoking and richly entertaining contribution to an intensifying debate about nationhood.
