Eighteenth-century Britons were frequently anxious about the threat
of invasion, military weakness, possible financial collapse and
potential revolution. Anthony Page argues that between 1744 and
1815, Britain fought a 'Seventy Years War' with France. This
invaluable study: - Argues for a new periodization of
eighteenth-century British history, and explains the politics and
course of Anglo-French war - Explores Britain's 'fiscal-naval'
state and its role in the expansion of empire and industrial
revolution - Highlights links between war, Enlightenment and the
evolution of modern British culture and politics Synthesizing
recent research on political, military, economic, social and
cultural history, Page demonstrates how Anglo-French war influenced
the revolutionary era and helped to shape the first age of global
imperialism.
