Basic: History of England. From the very era of Tudor. Akraid P.

The history of England is a continuous movement and a series of constant changes. But the whole history of England, starting with primitiveness, permeates continuity, so that the main thing in it is not changes, but constancy. Until now, in England, an inextricable connection with the past, with traditions and customs, is felt. Until now, this country, which has always been one, resists changes in any aspect of life. Peter Akraid shows the origins of the centuries -old immutability of England, its conservatism and commitment to the past. This book shows the history of England from the Neolithic period, the first settlements and the construction of Stonehenge to the construction of medieval cathedrals, the formation of universal law and the end of the reign of the first king of the Tudor dynasty of Henry VII. The narrative is conducted on the consistent waves of the invaders of the Romans, the Vikings, Saxons and the Normans, about the warring kings, about the civil strife inside the country and about foreign wars. In the work of Akraid, who is rightfully considered one of the best English writers, not only the political history, the everyday life of royal persons and the ups and downs of their relationships, but also the everyday life of ordinary people with its traditions, customs and material culture are recreated. A solid historical and literary work equipped with a 51-colored illustration will be of interest to a wide range of readers.
