The Oxford History of the British Empire: The Origins of the Empire Hardcover - 1998
by William Roger Louis; P. J. Marshall; Nicholas Canny (Editor)
A five-volume comprehensive assessment of the British Empire in the light of recent scholarship and the progressive opening of historical records. Written by international experts, Volume I explains how and why Britain became involved with transoceanic navigation, trade and settlement during the 16th and 17th centuries. 15 maps.
First line
The study of the British Empire in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries presents special difficulties because no empire, as the term subsequently came to be understood, then existed, while the adjective 'British' meant little to most inhabitants of Britain and Ireland during the years covered by this volume.
