This school presentation copy and is enscribed to Cyril A. Alington on the half title. This book is from the library of Cyril Argentine Alington (22 October 1872 – 16 May 1955) He was an English educationalist, scholar, cleric, and author. He was successively the headmaster of Shrewsbury School and Eton College. He also served as chaplain to King George V and as Dean of Durham. Alington wrote more than 50 books, including works on religion, biography, history, poetry, and a series of detective novels. He also wrote several popular hymns, including Good Christian Men, Rejoice and Sing (recently altered to Good Christians All, Rejoice and Sing), Ye that know The Lord is gracious and The Lord of Hosts Our King Shall Be which is used as the epigraph to Nevil Shute's novel In the Wet. This book is a sweeping, scholarly history of the Empire from its Roman roots through its medieval zenith to its dissolution in 1806. It remains one of the most influential English‑language studies of the institution, notable for its clarity, breadth, and its interpretation of the Empire as both a political reality and an enduring idea.Ref TTT 2.…
