Was the British empire given away in a fit of collective indifference as many have claimed? Englishness and Empire looks at connections between stories of nation and empire told in the media - the Second World War, the Coronation and Everest, colonial wars of the 1950s, immigration, Winston Churchill's funeral - and makes an important and original contribution to recent debates about the domestic consequences of the end of empire.
