About the book

Asks crucial questions about the nature of empire, journeying from celebrations of industrial and imperialist power at the Great Exhibition, to the catastrophic Irish potato famine and the Indian Mutiny. Alongside flamboyant heroes, like Nelson and Churchill, the author also recalls unsung heroines and virtually unknown enemies.
