Summary "London and the Kingdom - Volume 3" by Reginald R. Sharpe is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This volume is part of a larger work that examines the history of London through the lens of archival materials primarily from Guildhall. It delves into political events, such as the accession of monarchs, local governance issues, and the various social and economic factors that influenced the city's development. The opening of the text sets the stage for the period following the accession of King George I, discussing the immediate political landscape of London and the tensions surrounding the Jacobite rebellion. It describes the official proclamations and public celebrations that marked the new king’s arrival, while also highlighting the growing discontent among parts of the London populace. Additionally, the early chapters discuss the city's governance, the controversial political figures of the time, and the various societal issues that arose during this transformative period in London's history.
