At the Edge of the World? 3500 BC–AD 1603 by Simon Schama
2.0
The favouritism of monarchs was really really annoying it felt like half of the book was just about Lizzie and Mary Queen of scots while glancing over Henry V and the 100 year war. Maybe it was because of the more religious focus? And Scharma seems more confident with the Tudors onwards?
The part on Henry II was exemplary although new info has come to light since point of publishing.
I just wanted something to refresh me on Brit history since I haven't studied it for 3 years now, it didn't really seem up to scratch but it could be a me problem with wanting more than the average reader.
