First published in 1945 and full of the optimism of that post-war moment, this is a visually delightful recreation of the past which emphasises the cultural and social developments as well as the big and familiar historical moments. A beautiful book and one to treasure.

Lovereading comment:

As part of the Oxford Children’s Book Centenary this superb book first published back in 1945 is being brought to a new audience (anyone from 5 upwards really) in a new edition. It tells the story of Britain’s history through a narrative that relates to landmarks of british history from the Stone Age to the end of the Second World War and through some beautiful illustrations that are depicted through the imitation of the art of the period. Sometimes quaint but definitely provides a basic understanding of our history in a fun and delightful way. Be sure to also check out A Picture History of Great Discoveries by the same author.
