About “The blue pavilions”

The Isles: A History of Britain and Ireland presents a narrative history of Britain and Ireland by situating their development within the broader context of Europe, emphasizing connections rather than isolation. It traces historical periods from the Celtic Supremacy in the last centuries BC through the Viking Age, Plantagenet England, and the rise and decline of institutions central to "Britishness," concluding with the crisis facing Britain at the turn of the 21st century due to the emergence of the European Union and the dissolution of historic national identities.
