Description

This Collection, composed of altogether 23 reissued titles in four sub-sets from The Athlone Press, offers a distinguished selection of titles that showcase the width and breadth of historical study, as well as the interdisciplinary nature of the subject. Crossing over into politics, linguistics, economics, politics, military and maritime history, and science, this Collection encompasses titles on British, European and global subjects from the Early Modern period to the late 20th Century. Covering a vast range of interests from the Elizabethan Age to the American Revolutionary War to public services and 20th century education - these nine titles offer a cross section through British history and psyche. Taken on its own, each title examines a particular aspect of British history. As a set, they offer a wide-ranging understanding of how the United Kingdom changed from global empire to modern-day democracy. All titles can be bought individually or as part of a sub-set. This sub-set on British history includes: - The Elizabethan Pamphleteers: Popular Moralistic Pamphlets 1580-1640 by Sandra Clark - Professionalism, Patronage and Public Service in Victorian London by Gloria C. Clifton - Royal Mail: The History of the Post Office since 1840 by Martin J. Daunton - Housing the Workers: A Comparative History 1850-1914 by Martin J.
