An edition of Britain's imperial century, 1815-1914 (1976)

Britain's imperial century, 1815-1914

a study of empire and expansion

by

This is the undisputed best introduction to the history of the world-wide pattern of British activity in the nineteenth century, embracing its expansive spirit as well as its formal territorial empire. The dynamics of this extraordinary enterprise are considered broadly: the high-political concerns of strategy and international geopolitics are analyzed, as well as the economic dimension, missionary activity, and racial attitudes, together with a wide range of cultural aspects, including sport and the pursuit of sexual opportunity. Nor is the personal contribution of some of the leading Victorian figures neglected.

Excerpts

When you come to think of it, there was no such thing as Greater Britain, still less a British empire - India perhaps apart.
