The Pax Britannica trilogy is Jan Morris's wonderful background of the English Empire from 1837 to 1965. Huge in range and ambition, it will always be personal and immediate, bringing the story vividly alive. Pax Britannica, the next volume, is a snapshot of the Empire at the Diamond Jubilee of 1897. It looks at what made in the Empire -from adventurers and politicians to marketing communications and infrastructure, as well as anomalies and eccentricities. This humane analysis also examines the muddle of jumbled ideologies behind it, and how it influenced its 370 million people.
