"Protestant Island" chronicles the evolution of English society from a collection of warring tribes to a commercial powerhouse that shaped the world. Through vivid descriptions drawn from decades of social observation, the book paints a rich tapestry of English life from the Stuart era to the Victorian age.
Experience the contrasts of wealth and poverty, virtue and vice, as you traverse 18th-century London, industrial northern moors, and the grand parades of Hyde Park. Meet passionate sailors, exploited children, ambitious merchants, and socialist evangelists. Discover the forces that molded the English people and their nation, from religious intolerance to the rise of parliament. Explore the journey of England toward urbanisation and the social revolution.
