Description: "Based on the research of modern historians as well as a wealth of primary source material, Churchill's popular and readable A History of the English-Speaking Peoples was respected by scholars as well as the public in its day - a testament both to its integrity as a work of historical scholarship and its accessibility to laypeople. Churchill used primary sources to masterful effect, quoting directly from a range of documents, from Caesar's invasions of Britain to the beginning of the First World War, to provide valuable insights into those figures who played a leading role in British history. In Volume 3 Churchill begins with Marlborough's victory against William of Orange in 1704 and ends with Napoleon's 1815 defeat at Waterloo. Between these tales, Churchill illustrates how Britain rose to world prominence during the Age of Revolution."--Bloomsbury Publishing.
