The Atlas of Early Modern Britain presents a unique visual survey
of British history from the end of the Wars of the Roses through to
the accession of George I in 1715. Featuring 117 maps, accompanied
throughout by straightforward commentary and analysis, the atlas
begins with a geographical section embracing England, Scotland,
Ireland and Wales and providing clear orientation for the reader.
It then focuses separately on the sixteenth and seventeenth
centuries, dividing its coverage of each into four key themes:
Geography and Counties - Outlining in detail how Britain's
geography was shaped during the period; Politics and War - the main
campaigns, rebellions and political changes in each century;
Religion - including denominational concentrations, diocesan
boundaries and witch trials; Economy and Culture -charting
Britain's wealthiest towns, the locations of Britain's houses of
aristocracy and the effects of The Great Fire of London; The broad
scope of the atlas combines essential longer-term political,
social, cultural and economic developments as well as key events
such as the Spanish Armada, the Dissolution of the Monasteries, the
Civil War and the Glorious Revolution. Its blend of clear visual
aids and concise analysis represents an indispensable background
and reference resource for all students of the early modern period.
