“The Britain of 55 BC was a very different place to the Britain of today.  The main preoccupation back then was fear of Roman invasion; there was no genetically modified food, no New Labour, no Mad Cow’s Disease, and no Euro, all issues which are making history today.  The Oxford Companion to British History, first published in 1997, details and analyses the people and events that have shaped and defined life in Britain over 2000 years of political social, and cultural heritage.”
