The British History Podcast

By: Jamie Jeffers
  • Summary

  • The BHP is a chronological retelling of the history of Britain with a particular focus upon the lives of the people. You won’t find a dry recounting of dates and battles here, but instead you’ll learn about who these people were and how their desires, fears, and flaws shaped the scope of this island at the edge of the world. And some of those desires are downright scandalous.

    Forget conquering Gaul! Julius Caesar, fueled by ambition and fear of the mythical Oceanus, sets sail across uncharted waters to tame the wild warriors of Britain. His landing turns chaotic as chariots clash with Roman swords on blood-soaked beaches. But fear gives way to discipline, and the empire’s ironclad legions crush the blue-painted defenders. Peace […]
