A History of England
A History of England (1997–2002) is a series of reprints of twelve classic, magisterial volumes of different periods of English history, together constituting a continuous history from ancient Roman times to the end of the 20th century. The volumes were selected by, and under the general editorship of, British historian Felipe Fernandez-Armesto, and published by the Folio Society.
Fernandez-Armesto made his choices on the basis of "variety" and from among historians "eminent in their day and influential since". They are "not meant to be consistent or even compatible", but are all "likely to endure".
