About This Item
Oxford University Press, 2007. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. 9x1x6. Dark blue hardback with gilt lettered spine: firm and square, strong joints, sharp corners. Complete with original dustjacket, neat and sharp, not showing any scuffs or tears. Contents crisp, tight and clean; no pen-marks. Not from a library so no such stamps or labels. Looks and feels unread. Size: 240mm x 165mm. Pages: viii, 381. Fully indexed. Thus a very nice copy. For a thousand years France has struggled to impose unity upon its diverse components. For most of the time its leaders have sought to define its identity by opposition to the 'Anglo-Saxons': first England, then Britain and the USA. The prologue explores France's self-image by contrast with the Anglo-American counter-identity.
