The United Kingdom occupies such a central role in world history that it's hard to escape its influence. A deep respect for historical traditions, with flashes of influence from its imperial past, marks contemporary culture in the United Kingdom. Stonehenge and Westminster Abbey; Shakespeare and the Beatles; scotch whiskey and chicken tikka masala–these highlights and more are explored in this volume on British customs and culture. Covering history and religion; family and friends; food and drink; school and work; arts and entertainment; and cities, towns, and the countryside, Tradition, Culture, and Daily Life: Major Nations in a Global World explores what makes key countries unique magnets for the world's fascination.
