Summary "Outlines of English History from B.C. 55 to A.D. 1895" by John Charles Curtis is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book provides a comprehensive overview of English history, from the Roman invasion to the end of the 19th century, arranged in chronological order. It is likely aimed at educational purposes, serving as a resource for students and educators seeking to understand key events and figures that shaped England's past. The opening of the work introduces the Roman period in England, beginning with Julius Caesar's initial invasion in 55 B.C. and detailing significant events such as the establishment of Roman control, the resistance from native leaders like Boadicea, and the subsequent consolidation of Roman rule under governors like Agricola. The narrative emphasizes important dates and figures, giving readers a clear framework for understanding the early history of Britain before moving into subsequent periods like the Saxon and Norman, thus setting the stage for a detailed exploration of England's evolution through the ages.
