Book Synopsis

It''s time to tell the story of the Empire from the perspectives of peoples who were colonised.

Understand the nuances of the British Empire in different periods and places as you examine this complex, controversial history with respect and rigour.

> Explore differing experiences around the world. This book has more breadth and depth than any other, helping pupils to consider what the Empire meant for people in Ireland, America, the Caribbean, India, China, Australia, New Zealand, Africa, Iraq, Palestine and Britain, across a period of over 500 years.

> Look at the Empire like a real historian. Influenced by recent historical scholarship, we give agency to the indigenous people of the colonies and tell their stories for the first time in a school textbook. By focusing on consequences or experiences and asking better questions, we move far away from the traditional balance sheet approach.
