Kings, politicians, accomplishments, and failures are detailed in this engrossing seven-volume history of England between 1713 and 1783. What emerges is a colorful portrait of an era, dominated not by dates and facts but by people and momentous events. In volume three, Mahon covers everything from England’s realization of a possible war with France and the political reaction in 1740, to the adventures of Prince Charles Edward Stuart 1748.
