Arthur Bryant facts
- His books included studies of Samuel Pepys, accounts of English eighteenth- and nineteenth-century history, and a life of George V
- Whilst his scholarly reputation has declined somewhat since his death, he continues to be read and to be the subject of detailed historical studies
- He moved in high government circles and his books were devoured by the ruling elite; he was the favourite historian of at least three prime ministers: Churchill, Attlee, and Wilson
- Bryant's historiography was often based on an English romantic exceptionalism drawn from his nostalgia for an idealised agrarian past
