172pp. Occasional b/w illustrations in text. Colley examines the successive Acts of Union which have linked England, Wales, Ireland and Scotland into the United Kingdom in the context of growing pressures for Scottish Independence and UK's withdrawal from the European Union. She explores too some projected unions that failed, such as the repeated attempts to unite Britain and America.
