What is Britain, one country or many, one culture or several ?. has British history unfolded at the edge of the world or right at the heart of it ?. They are all caught on the rich and teeming canvas on which Schama paints his brilliant portrait of the life of our people for in the end, history, especially British history with its succession of thrilling illuminations, should be, as all her most accomplished narrators have promised, not just instruction but pleasure.
