Book excerpt: In this volume of 22 essays by a range of leading academics, a substantial attempt has been made to examine the body of published historical literature relating to the British Empire and Commonwealth. The main purpose of the essays is threefold: to provide, individually and collectively, a critical assessment and survey of the literature available up to 1966; to explain how this literature has developed; and to act as a guide to subsequent research. This wide ranging and detailed survey continues to remain of central importance to students, academics and librarians alike, and benefits from a new introduction by Robin Winks.
