Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book focuses on the strategic importance of Great Britain's relationship with the European continent in the context of the mid-18th-century global conflict known as the Seven Yearsâ War. The Seven Yearsâ War was a global event which set the British Empire on a collision course with the French Empire as Britain sought to expand its global reach. The author of this volume, a respected member of the House of Lords, was one of the leading policy wonks of his day and his insights into the challenges of waging war, financing an empire, and balancing European alliances, all under the shadow of conflict with France, are invaluable to understanding the British perspective. This book is a valuable resource for scholars and lay readers alike seeking to understand how and why the British Empire came to be a dominant global force.
