Publisher's Synopsis
Anglicania: Or England�������s Mission To The Celt is a book written by John Birmingham in 1863. The book discusses the relationship between England and the Celtic nations, particularly Ireland, Scotland, and Wales. Birmingham argues that England has a duty to civilize and Christianize the Celtic peoples, and that the Celtic nations should be grateful for England's intervention. The book also explores the history of the Anglo-Celtic relationship, including the conquest of Ireland and the Scottish Wars of Independence. Birmingham's writing is highly nationalistic and reflects the prevailing attitudes of the time towards the British Empire and its role in the world. The book is a fascinating insight into the mindset of Victorian England and its attitudes towards the Celtic nations.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
