The Tribes of Britain

The Tribes of Britain: Who are we and where do we come from? by David Miles.
[Published by George Weidenfeld & Nicholson (May 2005)]

Who are the English, Scots, Welsh, and Irish? New scientific techniques can be used to explore this complex genetic jigsaw—ancient Britons and Saxons, Celts and Romans, Vikings and Normans, and more recent migrations. Drawing on the latest discoveries, this book both challenges traditional views of history and provides new insight into the British and Irish today.
