About this audiobook
Revolution, Union, and the Birth of Great Britain explores the dramatic transformation of the British Isles from the reign of James II to the defeat of the Jacobite cause at Culloden. Beginning with the fear of a Catholic monarchy and the Glorious Revolution of 1688, this volume examines how Britain moved toward constitutional rule through the Bill of Rights, the expansion of parliamentary authority, and the growing limitations placed upon the crown.
Besides, this fifteenth volume follows the political and economic pressures that led to the Act of Union of 1707, creating the Kingdom of Great Britain from England and Scotland. It examines the reign of Queen Anne, the War of the Spanish Succession, the rise of the Hanoverian dynasty, and the enduring resistance of Jacobite supporters who sought to restore the Stuarts.
