British History & World History

At East Neuk Books we dont just love Scottish History books, we also love all kinds of British History books. The history of England before and after the Norman Conquest and English history is fascinating.  We also enjoy books about our Celtic cousins in Wales, and we love Welsh history too. The creation of the United Kingdom saw the rise of the British empire throughout the world and Britain helped defeat the Emperor Napoleon in the Nineteenth Century and Adolf Hitler in the Twentieth Century. At East Neuk Books you can find hundreds of books on British and World History.
