About the book

It covers less than half of one percent of the Earth's land mass, but is responsible for more than 40% of the world's great inventions. The first car, the first train and aeroplane came from Great Britain as did the steam engine, the jet engine, the engine of the internet, the first computer, the first telephone, the first TV, the first lightbulb and the first loo roll. Britain is truly great - and this explains why.
