The Historical Register: Containing. Relation Of All Transactions. With A Chronological Diary Of Events. That Happen'D From. July, 74, To. January 76; Being The First Seventeen Months Of The Reign Of King George. Intended As An Addition To The Historical Registers Already. The work offers a detailed account of Britain’s seamless constitutional and political transition after Queen Anne’s death in 1714 and the accession of George I. It traces the proclamation of the Protestant succession, the Regency administered by Lords Justices, and the initial organization of government, finance, and public credit to stabilize the new regime. It covers early parliamentary responses, public ceremonies in London, and measures relating to the Church of England and the royal succession. International diplomacy is mapped across The Hague, Hanover, Paris, Madrid, and Dublin, with attention to negotiations involving France, Spain, Portugal, and the Dutch Republic, as well as concerns about the Pretender and Jacobite unrest. The narrative also surveys security provisions, naval and military readiness, and the management of subsidies and offices, illustrating how a Hanoverian regime was legitimized and embedded domestically and abroad. The volume emphasizes loyalty to the crown, Protestant succession, and the consolidation of state institutions amid a climate of diplomatic maneuvering and financial reform.
