About this title

Synopsis

The History Of England - From The Invasion Of Inlins Casar To The Abdication Of James The Second, 1688 by David Hume. This work serves as a comprehensive index to a six?volume history of England and related European affairs, organized alphabetically to aid metadata creation, cross?referencing, and topic location. It catalogs entries on people, places, events, laws, institutions, and religious movements across centuries, with emphasis on political and constitutional development, religious upheaval, war and diplomacy, legal and fiscal reform, and social and economic context. Notable figures and factions—monarchs, statesmen, bishops and reformers, Royalists, Parliamentarians, Puritans, Presbyterians, Exclusionists, Whigs, and Tories—are represented, with extensive coverage of England and Wales and references to Scotland, Ireland, and continental Europe, including maritime and colonial theatres. The text is described as a dense reference index with cross?references to volumes I–VI, including publisher catalog material, indicating a scholarly reference tool rather than narrative prose. Local summaries situate Restoration debates, indemnity, ministerial influence, religious settlement tensions, Anglo?European diplomacy, and the constitutional questions surrounding prerogative and dispensing power, as the era progresses toward James II and beyond.
