The New World - AOY8

by Winston Churchill Author

The New World is Winston S. Churchill's brilliant re-creation of one of the most fateful periods in English and American History- the two centuries between 1485-1688. These were the turbulent years which saw England win her farflung empire and defeat the might of Spain, when thousands of colonists left England found herself torn by religious wars and persecutions. These were the times of the great kings and queens, of the rupture of Rome, the Puritan rebellion and Oliver Cromwell, dramatically brought to life by one of the greatest historians and statesen of our time.
