The Day Britain Died

London England: Profile Books Ltd. Paperback. The Day Britain Died. The strong old British state is disappearing, broken up by devolution and the European Union and smothered by global business. Should we care. This book comes in the midst of a wave of questioning about Britain from historians and writers, mainly on the right. in this book, Andrew Marr sets out to discover whether Britain matters, and whether it is worth bothering to save. Marr, a Westminster insider, looks at the voices of revolt - from English nationalists to embittered farmers, from inner-city Bangladeshis to green rebels. What does 'Britain' mean now following the devolution of Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland? And what does 'British' mean when Winnie the Pooh speaks with an American accent, the Internet is eroding British-English and the pound is being prepared for abolition? Andrew Marr is an award-winning journalist. 251 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences.
