Patriotism and Empire (1899)

Patriotism and Empire is a book written by John Mackinnon Robertson and published in 1899. The book explores the relationship between patriotism and imperialism in the context of the British Empire. Robertson argues that patriotism and imperialism are closely linked, and that the British Empire was built on a foundation of patriotic sentiment. He also examines the impact of imperialism on the British national character, and the ways in which patriotism was used to justify imperial expansion. The book is a critical analysis of the ideology of imperialism and its effects on British society and politics. Robertson's arguments are based on historical evidence and contemporary political debates, and he draws on a wide range of sources to support his claims. The book is considered an important contribution to the study of imperialism and nationalism in the late 19th century, and remains relevant to contemporary discussions of patriotism and empire.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
