Andrew Marr's The Making of Modern Britain

Andrew Marr's The Making of Modern Britain

Description: In a follow-up to his earlier series, `Andrew Marr's History of Modern Britain,' the journalist and political commentator examines events in British history beginning with the death of Queen Victoria and the Boer War to the end of the Second World War. That 44-year span, though brief, was a period in which the country was `shaken from top to toe,' according to Marr, as the empire began to `totter', women won the vote, democracy came of age, and two `apocalyptic world wars were fought to defend it.' Archival footage and photographs underscore the stark horrors of war and the chaos of political upheaval.
