The History of England is a comprehensive book written by A. F. Pollard that provides a detailed account of the history of England. The book covers the period from the earliest times to the end of the 19th century. It is divided into several sections, each covering a specific period in English history. The book begins with a discussion of the early Anglo-Saxon period and goes on to cover the Norman Conquest, the Plantagenet dynasty, the Tudor dynasty, the Stuart dynasty, and the Hanoverian dynasty. The author provides a detailed analysis of the political, social, and economic developments that took place during each period. He also discusses the major events that shaped English history, such as the English Civil War, the Glorious Revolution, and the Industrial Revolution. The book also includes biographical sketches of the major figures in English history, such as William the Conqueror, Henry VIII, Elizabeth I, and Queen Victoria.The History of England is a well-researched and authoritative book that provides a comprehensive overview of English history. It is an essential read for anyone interested in understanding the development of England and its impact on the world. The book is written in a clear and accessible style, making it suitable for both academic and general readers.There are three periods in British colonial expansion. The first, or introductory period, was marked by England's rivalry with Spain and Portugal; the second by its rivalry with the Dutch; and the third by its rivalry with France; and in each the rivalry led to wars in which Britain was victorious. The Elizabethan war with Spain was followed by the Dutch wars of the Commonwealth and Charles II's reign, and then by the French wars, which lasted, with longer or shorter intervals, from 1688 to 1815. The wars with the Dutch showed how completely, in the latter half of the seventeenth century, commercial interests outweighed those of religion and politics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
