description: Britain had the biggest empire the world has ever known. Whatever the day, whatever the hour, somewhere on the globe, the empire worked and played the British game - often absurdly so. This work shows the history of exploration from the 16th century, but more importantly, from the mid-18th century to the period shortly before the First world War.
