A Child's History of England
Publisher Description
Charles Dickens dedicated this engaging volume to his own children, in whom he hoped to inspire an interest in history. Written with Dickens’s characteristic eye for detail, the history covers the period from 50 B.C. to 1689, ending with a chapter summarizing events from then until Queen Victoria’s accession to the throne in 1837.

Interesting for the most part
There was sufficient information to be of interest. But I got confused with so many titles and names being the same. Plus the descriptions of tortures got to be too much. Long live Queen Elizabeth II!
