Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These two volumes fill a large gap in the military history of the period just after the War of the Spanish Succession, in which the Duke of Marlborough had made his name. It is important to note that the British Army at the time had two establishments, the English and the Irish, and both are covered in the two volumes. Volume I covers the early Georgian period and gives much detail of the commanders and senior officers, and also includes the important listing of officers commissioned in the regiments in the English establishment in 1715. It also includes a complete listing of all non-regimental commissions, plus cavalry, artillery and ordnance commissions in 1715. The Irish officers are listed too, in a separate section, together with the officers of the Irish Train of Artillery.The second volume continues the history of the period, and gives more biographies. There is also a complete listing of officers in regiments raised in Ireland in 1715-16 and again in 1716-18. The English establishment for 1719-27 is also listed, including cavalry, guards and infantry of the line.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite a long and eventful reign, Britain's George II is a largely forgotten monarch, his achievements overlooked and his abilities misunderstood. This landmark biography uncovers extensive new evidence in British and German archives, making possible the most complete and accurate assessment of this thirty-three-year reign. Andrew C. Thompson paints a richly detailed portrait of the many-faceted monarch in his public as well as his private life. Born in Hanover in 1683, George Augustus first came to London in 1714 as the new Prince of Wales. He assumed the throne in 1727, held it until his death in 1760, and has the distinction of being Britain's last foreign-born king and the last king to lead an army in battle. With George's story at its heart, the book reconstructs his thoughts and actions through a careful reading of the letters and papers of those around him. Thompson explores the previously underappreciated roles George played in the political processes of Britain, especially in foreign policy, and also charts the intricacies of the king's complicated relationships and reassesses the lasting impact of his frequent return trips to Hanover. George II emerges from these pages as an independent and cosmopolitan figure of undeniable historical fascination.

Download or read book George III written by Christopher Hibbert and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2000-02-04 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In George III: A Personal History, British historian Christopher Hibbert reassesses the royal monarch George III (1738–1820). Rather than reaffirm George III's reputation as “Mad King George,” Hibbert portrays him as not only a competent ruler during most of his reign, but also as a patron of the arts and sciences, as a man of wit and intelligence, indeed, as a man who “greatly enhanced the reputation of the British monarchy” until he was finally stricken by a rare hereditary disease.Teeming with court machinations, sexual intrigues, and familial conflicts, George III opens a window on the tumultuous, rambunctious, revolutionary eighteenth century. It is sure to alter our understanding of this fascinating, complex, and very human king who so strongly shaped England's —and America's—destiny.
