Stiff Upper Lip England: A History in Faces
Stiff Upper Lip England is a book that collects fascinating historical sketches about the most legendary, brutal, and revolutionary figures in England's history. Did Robin Hood really exist? Why did Queen Elizabeth keep a pirate at court? Were the kings...
from the Stuart dynasty cursed? Why is the 19th century called the Victorian era? The numerous wives of Henry VIII, the bloody reign of his daughter - Mary Tudor, the celebration of life of the Merry King Charles II, and the golden age of Queen Victoria - are far from all the events that left an indelible mark on the cultural face of the archipelago. Passionate heroes and desperate dreamers come to life on the pages of Natalia Basovskaya's narrative and shatter the stereotype of the stiff upper lip Englishman.
