Description:

In this volume, Robinson argues for a radical re-interpretation of British history from the perspective of the Celtic races. He contends that the ancient Britons, as well as the Celts of continental Europe were racially white and not negroid or dark-skinned. In his view, a false belief in a dark race was introduced by Claudius Aelianus around AD 220. The essays which follow are published with a biographical sketch and notes on each essay. This essay collection by J. Armitage Robinson deals with the history of an English village during the nineteenth century, through which he examines life, customs, and changes in society. The essays are arranged chronologically and provide an intimate view of rural life that is unequalled in its accuracy and detail.
