Interesting essays on the invention of tradition in, among others, Scotland and Wales, India and Africa. I'm a bit at a loss with Hobsbawm's own essay at the end of the collection. It lacks clarity i'm afraid.
I also wished it would look a bit further than the Commonwealth experience. Traditions in France, England properly, Germany and the USA are only glanced at sideways.
