QR code
"The History of England in Three Volumes, Vol. I., Part C." by David Hume is a historical work published between 1754-1762. Written during his tenure as librarian in Edinburgh, Hume's ambitious chronicle spans from Julius Caesar's invasion to the Revolution of 1688. Initially met with outrage from all political factions, it became a bestseller and the standard history of England in its era. Hume sought to legitimize the 1688 Revolution and present
Britain's modern constitution, challenging views of purely evolutionary constitutional development. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
