This book is a spirited and controversial look at the complex history of British racial and religious conflicts, from the introduction of Anglo-Saxon rule to the present day. The author argues that the myth of Anglo-Saxon superiority has been used to justify centuries of oppression against the native Celtic and French-speaking peoples of the British Isles, from the Norman Conquest to the anti-Irish and anti-Catholic bigotry that flourished in the 19th and 20th centuries. The book also explores the impact of these conflicts on the development of modern-day Canada, where tensions between the descendants of British settlers and the indigenous population continue to shape society. The author concludes that a deeper understanding of the historical roots of these conflicts is essential for creating a more inclusive and just society.
