  Empire by Jeremy Paxman

  Price: £8.99    Add to Basket

  The influence of the British Empire is everywhere, from the very existence of the United Kingdom to the ethnic compositions of our cities. Whether it’s the sports we think we’re good at or the architecture of our buildings, the way we travel or the way we trade, the hopeless losers we urge on or the food we hunger for, the British Empire is never far away.

  The English by Jeremy Paxman

  Price: £9.99    Add to Basket

  The dry, intelligent voice of Jeremy Paxman describes the Englishman and his changing sense of self. Anecdotes from history, literature and even cinema dwell on the English obsession with games, their masochistic delight in persecution, their attitude to food and their remarkable language.
