Conquest, rebellion, and the slow forging of a kingdom: Tobias Smollett tells England's story as vivid, unfolding historical drama. Smollett writes with vivid urgency. In this opening Volume I of A Complete History of England, his narrative political history England unfolds from Roman Britain onward, tracing rulers, parliaments, and peoples as they wrestle for power, faith, and survival. The result is a classic history of England that blends British political and military history into a continuous, richly detailed, highly readable chronicle, ideal both for dedicated history students and scholars and for curious general readers. First published in the mid-eighteenth century and often shelved alongside the David Hume history collection, the Smollett Complete History England became a touchstone account of the English monarchy and wars, early modern England history, and the long sequence of events that would culminate in the treaty aix la chapelle 1748. For homeschool British history curriculum planners, collectors of classic non-fiction, and anyone seeking a comprehensive British history volume in a single, authoritative voice, this edition offers lasting value. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure.
