Descripción

Explore the fascinating rise of the British Empire at its zenith, the largest empire in history. This concise volume delves into its evolution during the long 18th century, from 1714 through the conclusion of the Napoleonic Wars. It begins with the prosperity fostered by Sir Robert Walpoles ministry (1721-1742) and follows the Empires expansion through the military prowess of Lord Clive in India. Under the dynamic leadership of William Pitt, Earl of Chatham, the British triumphed in the Seven Years War (1756-1763) and, despite the challenges posed by the loss of American colonies and years of warfare with France, the British navy emerged as the sovereign force of the seas. By the early 19th century, the Empire was a vast dominion upon which the sun never set. (Summary by Pamela Nagami, M.D.)
