This audiobook continues the award-winning BBC Radio 4 group of the storyline of Britain, right away of the 20th century for this day. Christopher Lee's history of Britain, This Sceptred Isle, provided the definitive radio account of the nation from the arrival of Julius Caesar to the death of Queen Victoria. This Sceptred Isle: The Twentieth Century continues the storyline, taking us through decades of whirlwind change and technological advancement in a diverse and colourful country on the brink of a fresh millennium. Volume 1, covering the years 1901-1919, talks about the impact of the death of Queen Victoria, the growth of the Suffragette Movement, changes in the capital, like the introduction of the first motor buses, and, of course, the far-reaching consequences of the First World War.
