Produktinformationen zu „A Narrow Sea (ePub)“

Based on the popular BBC Radio Ulster series of the same name, A Narrow Sea traces the epic sweep of Ireland's relationship with Scotland, exploring the myriad connections, correlations, personalities and antagonisms that have, over the years, defined the relationship between these two spirited neighbours.

Roving freely across the centuries, from the first migrations of the regions' intrepid Mesolithic pioneers, to the grand colonial projects of the Vikings, Normans and Stuarts, this is the dramatic story of how one culture came to found two very different nations and, in doing so, project its influence as far afield as North America and Australasia.

In 120 brief and accessible episodes, A Narrow Sea offers a stirring and panoramic view of a connection that has shaped the course of history on both sides of the narrow sea.

Autoren-Porträt von Jonathan Bardon

Jonathan Bardon is one of Ireland's most eminent historians. A former lecturer in History at Queens University, Belfast, he has presented several radio documentary series for BBC Ulster and is the author of numerous books now widely acknowledged as classic works of Irish historiography, including A History of Ulster (2001), The Plantation of Ulster (2011) and A History of Ireland in 250 Episodes (2008). In 2002, he was awarded an OBE (Order of the British Empire) for his 'services to community life' in Northern Ireland. His most recent collaboration with Gill Books was 2015's Hallelujah, an account of how Handel's ground-breaking Messiah came to be debuted in Dublin.
