Excellent Historical View of Events in 150 pages

Culture and Power in England gives an excellent historical narritive of England in a rather small book. Unlike Christopher Hill's "The World Turned Upside Down," it uncovers many of the less publicised points of view before the Puritain Revolution. It also goes forward to give an excellent over view of the "Glorious" Revolution. People looking for a wide range of issues from travel to classical literature to what was vouge will find them all in this short volume. While the field of Cultural history is still debated, this gives an excellent case for studying how people reacted to everything in their world.
