Overview

In 1985 Simon Winchester was struck with the idea of visiting the assorted far-flung islands which are all that remain of the British Empire. He travelled 100,000 miles back and forth, from Antartica to the Carribbean, from the Mediterranean to the Far East in his search to discover what had once made Britain Great.
