About this product

Product Information

The diverse peoples of Britain and Ireland are revealed not only by physical characteristics but also through structures and settlements, place names and dialects. Using the latest genetic and archaeological research, the author shows how different peoples traded, settled and conquered, establishing the 'tribal' and regional roots still apparent today. Its vast scope considers the impact of prehistoric peoples and Celtic tribes, Romans and Vikings, Saxons and Normans, Jews and Huguenots, as well as the increasing population movements of the last century.

Reviews
'Miles's copiously fascinating account... is not only highly enjoyable and instructive, but very timely.', 'an engaging, informative and entertaining book... an excellent introduction to the complexities of British history and prehistory.', 'In The Tribes of Britain, [Miles] unpacks some of the chocolate box notions of what it is to be English, Welsh, Scottish, Irish or British... Miles is at his best in showing how many of the conventional views of the origins of British identities are more myth than history.', 'A good background book. Massively informative and earthily evocative, it does some of the preliminary workd necessary to understand, if not cure, our current identity crisis.'
