Read by Timothy West, the second volume of Simon Schama's compelling history explores two centuries of tumultuous change in the British Isles, spanning battles across Europe, America, India, and at sea. It examines how a nation shaped by religious, political, and colonial conflicts eventually unified in a powerful imperial identity. Through vivid storytelling, the narrative highlights both prominent and lesser-known figures who influenced this transformative period in Britain’s history.
