Synopsis "The British Empire: The History and Legacy of the Rise and Fall of the Modern World's Most Famous Empire (in English)"
*Includes pictures *Includes contemporary accounts *Includes online resources and a bibliography for further reading "The Industrial Revolution was another of those extraordinary jumps forward in the story of civilization." - Stephen Gardiner World domination is a vision most kings, queens, and emperors can only dream of, and is a path less visited for good reason. It is one that requires above all, patience, as well as skill, tenacity, and an impenetrable plan of action. The only one to ever come close to this impossible level of prestige is none other than the legendary British Empire. It was under the reign of King Henry VII of England that this ambitious idea of global expansion was first planted. In March of 1496, the king granted an exploratory charter to John Cabot, who would pilot a successful voyage that resulted in the occupation of an uninhabited island in Newfoundland. Though Cabot's second voyage ended in disaster, the courage and will he displayed during these endeavors inspired English explorers to organize more ventures and take to the seas themselves, as they hoped to see just how far they could push the envelope. The British Empire: The History and Legacy of the Rise and Fall of the Modern World's Most Famous Empire examines the history and legacy of one of the most important eras in modern history. Along with pictures of important people, places, and events, you will learn about the British empire like never before.
