This handbook is part of the "Complete A-Z Handbooks" which seek to provide focused subject glossaries of all the key terms relvant to the subject area. Featuring 19th and 20th century British history, this handbook provides one-sentence definitions for each entry, followed by a more detailed explanation. Entries include key events, key historical figures and explanations of period-specific terms, such as "radicalism" and "liberalism". Entries are carefully cross-referenced, to enable students to build up knowledge of particular topics for use in essay writing and answering exam questions.
