Overview

Blending analysis and narrative, David Reynolds offers an explanation of the British decline. By examining Britain's economy, empire and international position, he reveals the limits of British power in its Victorian heyday. Determinist theories of decline take us only so far: the British Empire reached its largest extent after 1918. In other words, this was a country with weaknesses, but also many potential strengths. How that potential was realized raised the issues of policy - decisions about diplomacy, strategy and the use of national resources. Reynolds emphasizes the choices open to British leaders within the overall constraints imposed by diminishing power.
