The History of England, Volume I by David Hume
QR code
"The History of England, Volume I" by David Hume is a historical work published between 1754-1762. Written while Hume served as librarian in Edinburgh, this six-volume work spans from Julius Caesar's invasion to the Revolution of 1688. Though initially met with outrage from all political factions, it became a bestseller and the standard history of England in its time. Hume sought to legitimize the 1688 Revolution and present Britain's constitution as distinctly
modern, appealing to both Whigs and former Jacobites alike. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
