The Cambridge Historical Encyclopedia of Great Britain and Ireland by Christopher Haigh
A unique history covering every major aspect of British life, with full coverage of England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland; contributions from 60 major scholars; an 840-entry biographical Who's Who; and 930 ready reference entries on key dates and events.
'A reference book as well as a continuous historyThe author and publishers deserve congratulations for the ingenuity with which they have solved the problem of combining the two very different kinds of approach. This they have done by offering descriptive entries alongside interpretative essays and the whole volume is rounded off by an index and a Who's Who of the good and the great in British history. It is obvious from the calibre of the contributors that this is no mere potbolier.' History Today
