This book examines the cultural, economic, and social forces that
shaped the development of the British empire in the eighteenth
century. The empire is placed in a broad historiographical context
informed by important recent work on the 'fiscal-military state',
and 'gentlemanly capitalism'. This allows the empire to be seen not
as a series of discrete, unconnected geographical regions scattered
across the world, but as a commercial, cultural, and social body
with its roots very firmly planted in metropolitan society.
