Riassunto

Take a spirited tour of British history, as told through 50 key documents.
From the Magna Carta to Hitler’s letter to Chamberlain agreeing never to go to war, these 50 documents capture some of the most significant moments in English history. Peter and Dan Snow—historians with a wealth of experience in politics, military history, and current affairs—explore the implications and impact of these treasures, which they personally chose. Ten of these documents appear in facsimile form, and all reproductions are the same size as the original.
