The undisputed best introduction to the history of the world-wide pattern of British activity in the nineteenth century, embracing its expansive spirit as well as its formal territorial empire. The dynamics of this extraordinary enterprise are considered broadly: the high-political concerns of strategy and international geopolitics are analyzed, as well as the economic dimension, missionary activity, and racial attitudes, together with a wide range of cultural aspects, including sport and the pursuit of sexual opportunity. Nor is the personal contribution of some of the leading Victorian figures neglected.

Great book if you study European history. It covers a very eventful period leading to WWI.

Easy read.

Hyam's an excellent writer, I have to give him that. But I do think that there's too much of an emphasis on his theories in this book and not enough evidence. Given that the book was bought for aiding my History essay meant that I couldn't really use this book to find any substantial evidence and had to look elsewhere. BUT, having said this the writing style is very good, nice and concise.
