In Advancing Empire, L. H. Roper explores the origins and early
development of English overseas expansion. Roper focuses on the
networks of aristocrats, merchants, and colonial-imperialists who
worked to control the transport and production of exotic
commodities, such as tobacco and sugar, as well as the labor
required to produce them. He is primarily interested in the
relationship between the English state and the people it governed,
the role of that state in imperial development, the socio-political
character of English colonies and English relations with Asians,
Africans, American Indians, and other Europeans overseas. The
activities stimulated the expansion and integration of global
territorial and commercial interests that became the British Empire
in the eighteenth century. In exploring these activities from a
wider perspective, Roper offers a novel conclusion that revises
popular analyses of the English Empire and of Anglo-America.
