The British empire was a huge enterprise. To foreigners it more or less defined Britain in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Its repercussions in the wider world are still with us today. One might expect this to have been reflected in her society and culture. This is the first book to examine this assumption critically against the broader background of contemporary British society. Bernard Porter, a leading imperial historian, argues that the empire had a far lower profile in Britain than it did abroad. He argues that though Britain was an imperial nation in this period, she was ne

Intrigue, deceit, corruption, villainy, eccentricity, and violence - the many aspects of the fascinating story of Britain’s "secret state". The secret state exists to protect Britain from the "enemies within". In the past it was supposed to have saved her from the terrors of the French and Russian revolutions. More recently it may have saved her from Harold Wilson and Edward Heath. Is this so? Do the spies, informers, political policemen, letter-openers and "buggists" deserve a place in Britain’s history? "Plots and Paranoia" presents the history of Britain’s covert counter-s

After movie-makers in England bungled film versions of Bernard Shaw’s How He Lied to Her Husband and Arms and the Man, producers and directors in Germany and Holland botched those based on Pygmalion, and a Hollywood screenplay desecrated The Devil’s Disciple, Shaw took a chance on Gabriel Pascal and gave him permission to produce a movie version of Pygmalion in England.
