description: This eBook aims at describing leading events and personages of the Hanoverian period rather than at providing a historical text-book. Many omissions have therefore been inevitable—the more so because space was needed for a brief account of economic development, of the government of England, and of the growth of the Empire.  Military history is necessarily very prominent in the century after 1714, but, speaking generally, details of battles and campaigns have been avoided. Quebec, Trafalgar and Waterloo, however, have been treated on a fairly large scale, and, it is hoped, in such a manner as to make them interesting.  The story of one of the most powerful and historically important dynastic European lines is told her, vividly illustrated to provide a rich reading experience.
