Product Description

What does it mean to be British? It is now recognized that being British is not innate, static or permanent, but that national identities within Britain are constantly constructed and reconstructed. Britishness since 1870 examines this definition and redefinition of the British national identity since the 1870s.

Review
[This book will] serve as a useful introduction to a complicated but rewarding field of academic inquiry. –ZAA

Paul Ward writes both with wit and with a real depth of learning on a fascinating subject. This is an important book which will surely change our view of what it has meant to be British.
