History of England (1713–1783)

Kings, politicians, accomplishments, and failures are detailed in this engrossing seven-volume history of England between 1713 and 1783. What emerges is a colorful portrait of an era, dominated not by dates and facts but by people and momentous events. The opening volume of this masterful work covers the years 1713 through 1720: from the Peace of Utrecht to the rejection of the Peerage Bill.
