David explores the contested histories and modern hybrid identities that were left behind when, after four centuries, the British Empire finally came to an end, just decades after reaching its maximum size in the wake of the First World War. He also reveals how members of his own family were connected to the Empire as both colonisers and colonised, showing that this controversial and complex story is in many ways a messy and shared history
