Empireland: How Imperialism Has Shaped Modern Britain by Sathnam Sanghera
challenging
informative
sad
medium-paced
4.0
This was a really interesting look at the legacy of empire in the UK. Sanghera tackles a heavy subject with humour and his writing style and tone really worked for me. There's a lot of information here but it was easy to read. It's amazing that I learnt none of this at school and I'm interested in reading his follow up Empireworld as well.
