A History Of Britain: The Georgians

This book covers a period of over a hundred years, from 1714 to 1830. This time is known as the Georgian period, because the four kings who ruled Britain were all named George. During these years the chief ministers of Parliament became more powerful while the king became less important. Life for most people changed with the growth of towns and the starts of the Industrial Revolution. Major figures and events are covered with clear text and colour illustrations, making this a perfect guide to the time for primary school students.
