With contributions from leading historians of the day, alongside
chapters by politicians, journalists and lawyers, this three-volume
work was the first comprehensive survey of foreign policy during
the rise of Britain as a major power. Published between 1922 and
1923, it is unashamed in its aim to present 'a national point of
view [with] an avowed regard for the interests, and above all for
the honour of Great Britain', but is all the more illuminating for
that. Including some original memoranda and documents, it takes as
its starting point the Treaty of Paris ending the American War of
Independence, and concludes with the Treaty of Versailles (1919).
Volume 1 includes a summary of the significant issues and
preoccupations of successive British governments and monarchs
leading up to the appointment of Britain's first foreign secretary
in 1782. European affairs dominated the period and two chapters are
devoted to relations with France.
