About this book
In the early 20th century, as England grappled with the aftermath of imperial ambitions and social upheaval, "The Egregious English" by Angus McNeill emerges as a sharp critique of national identity. Through a satirical lens, McNeill dissects the intricacies of social class and cultural values, revealing the contradictions within a society clinging to its past glories. With incisive commentary on the illusions of national pride and the stark realities of class disparity, this work challenges readers to confront the uncomfortable truths of their heritage. Ideal for students, civic activists, and historians, "The Egregious English" invites a deeper understanding of the complexities of English society and its enduring impact on contemporary discourse.
