British Politics And Foreign Policy, 1744-57: Mid-Century Crisis

The years between 1744 and 1757 were a testing time for the British government as political unrest at home exploded into armed rebellion, whilst on the continent French armies were repeatedly victorious. Building upon methods employed in the preceding two books, this volume charts the significant political changes of 1744-57. The book offers a guided narrative that both uses and builds on the analysis offered by contemporary commentators, and provides an informed assessment of the significance of the ideas, terms and language employed in eighteenth-century Britain to discuss foreign policy and politics.
