  1. This book argues that in the 18th century Britain used its present as a way of interpreting the significance of its past. One can easily trace this way of viewing history straight through to the recent Brexit vote. This book shows how and why this process began.

  2. Well-known and highly regarded author Jeremy Black argues persuasively for a reconsideration of how we think of the 18th century in England. This was a key time in English (and world) history, and has clear and timely ramifications to world political dynamics today.

  3. This is a broad, accessibly written work that will appeal to historians working in a number of fields as well as younger undergraduates and history buffs among the wider public.
