Publisher's Synopsis
Anglicania: Or England's Mission To The Celt is a book written by John Birmingham and published in 1863. The book explores the relationship between England and the Celtic nations of Ireland, Scotland, and Wales. Birmingham argues that England has a duty to bring civilization and progress to the Celts, who he believes are backward and in need of English influence. He also discusses the history of England's interactions with the Celts, including the conquest of Ireland and the Scottish Wars of Independence. The book is a reflection of the prevailing attitudes towards colonialism and imperialism in the 19th century, and it provides insight into the way that England viewed its relationship with the Celtic nations. Despite its controversial views, Anglicania remains an important historical document and a fascinating read for anyone interested in the history of the British Isles.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
