In the surviving books of his Histories" the barrister-historian Tacitus writing some thirty years after the events he describes gives us a detailed account based on excellent authorities. In the long but single year of revolution four emperors emerge in succession: Galba Otho Vitellius & Vespasian

National history is a vital part of national self-definition. Most books on the history of the world try to impose a uniform narrative written usually from a single writers point of view. Histories of Nations" is different: it presents 28 essays written by a leading historian as a self-portrait of his or her native country defining the characteristics that embody its sense of nationhood. The countries have been selected to represent every continent & every type of state large & small & together they make up two-thirds of the worlds population. They range from mature democracies to religious autocracies & one-party states from countries with a venerable history to those who only came into being in the 20th century. In order to get to grips with the national & cultural differences that both enliven & endanger our world we need above all to understand different national viewpoints to read the always engaging & often passionate accounts given in this remarkable & unusual book." ...

In 1952 after years of tension & bitterness the grievances of the Gikuyu people of central Kenya exploded into open rebellion. Only 32 European settlers died in the subsequent fighting but more than 1 800 African civilians over 3 000 African police & soldiers & 12 000 Mau Mau rebels were killed. Between 1953 & 1956 Britain sent over a thousand Kenyans to the gallows often on trumped up or non-existent charges. Meanwhile 70 000 people were imprisoned in camps without trial for between two & six years. David Anderson provides a full & convincing account of a war in which all sides behaved badly & therefore few of the combatants can be either fully excused or blamed. These events are still within living memory & eye-witness testimonies provide the backbone of this controversial story. ...
