Volume I of The Oxford History of the British Empire

The Oxford History of the British Empire is a five-volume history of the British Empire published by the Oxford University Press in 1998 and 1999. According to the publisher, the series "deals with the interaction of British and non-western societies from the Elizabethan era to the late twentieth century, aiming to provide a balanced treatment of the ruled as well as the rulers, and to take into account the significance of the Empire for the peoples of the British Isles".[1] The editor-in-chief for the main series was Wm. Roger Louis.[2]

In addition to the principal five volumes, the Oxford History of the British Empire also includes a spin-off "Companion Series" which "pursue themes that could not be covered adequately in the main series".[3] 16 volumes have been published in the series since 2004.
