Think again.
In gloriously corrosive prose, M. J. Harper destroys the cherished national myths of the English, the Scots, the Welsh, the Irish ans – to demonstrate his lack of national bias – the French. In doing so he also shows that most of the entries in the Oxford English Dictionnary are wrong, the whole of British place-name theory is misconceived, Latin is not what is seems, the Anglo-Saxons played no major part in our history or language and Middle English is a wholly imaginary language created by well-meaning but deluded academics.
Iconoclastic, unsentimental and truly original, The History of Britain Revealed will change the way you think about history, language and much else besides. It is an essential but rarely comforting read for anyone who believes that history matters.
