Title: The British Problem, C. 1534-1707: State Formation in the Atlantic Archipelago
Description: New York, NY, St. Martin's Press, 1996. Hardcover. Quarto. Hardcover. Boards bound in black cloth with jacket. 334 pages ; 23 cm. This pioneering book seeks to transcend the limitations of separate English, Irish, Scottish and Welsh histories by taking the archipelago made up of the islands of Britain and Ireland as a single unit of study. This is a story of the creation of a British state system if not a British state, with the incorporation of Wales into the English state, the creation of a kingdom of Ireland dependent on the English Crown and of a confederation of the Scottish and English crowns; and it is the story of how the various peoples of the archipelago interacted and became different peoples as a result of that interaction.
