Synopsis: |
Presented in memory of the distinguished historian Philip Lawson, this collection of essays examines the domestic and colonial history of Britain in the period between the Hanoverian succession and the early-19th century. Beginning with two historiographical surveys, the contributions go on to discuss many of the issues at the forefront of historical research and controversy: the aristocracy, the British problem, the political role of women, British identity, and the problems of empire in both India and America. |
