Ideal for student use, this unique resource describes and evaluates ten of the most important events in British history between 1689 and the present. Each event is covered in a separate chapter. Coverage of each event consists of an introduction that presents factual information in clear, concise, chronological order. The introduction is followed by a longer interpretive essay by a specialist exploring the short-term and far-reaching ramifications of the event. The ten events covered are: the Industrial Revolution, the Seven Years' War, the Napoleonic Wars, Pax Britannica, the Reform Act of 1832, the Crystal Palace Exhibition, the Movement for Irish Independence and Woman Suffrage, World War I, World War II, and the Thatcher Era. Coverage of each event also includes an annotated bibliography of works suitable for students and a full-page illustration of the event. The work also includes other helpful material: a glossary of terms, a timeline of British history since 1689, a chronological list of ruling houses and monarchs, and a chronological list of prime ministers. This resource will help students to better understand the major developments in modern British history, their significance, and their long-term impact.
