Excerpt from The History of England, Vol. 1 of 3 My situation I conceive to be favourable for the disco very and delivery of truth in history. I belong to no sect or party, in religion or politics. A member of the Church of England, I give it in my mind a moderate preference to any other, without taking on me to assert that it is ab solutely the best; in politics, it is to me personally a mat ter of perfect indifl'erence what party has the disposal of the patronage of the state, for place or pension I neither desire nor want, and would not accept. Perhaps this forms as near an approach as may be to the paradoxical character of a good historian - that il ne faudroit etre d'aucune te ligion, d'auctm pays, d'aucune profession, d'aucun parti.

Excerpt from History of England, Vol. 1 of 3: From the Peace of Utrecht to the Peace of Aix-La-Chapelle The era of the Georges in England may be compared to the era of the Antonines at Rome. It was a period combining happiness and glory - a period of kind rulers and a prosperous people. While improvement was advancing at home with gigantic strides, while great wars were waged abroad, the domestic repose and enjoyment of the nation were scarce for a moment ever broken through. The current was strong and rapid, but the surface remained smooth and unruffled. Lives were seldom lost, either by popular breaches of the law or by its rigorous execution. The population augmented fast, but wealth augmented faster still: comforts became more largely diffused, and knowledge more generally cultivated. Unlike the era of the Antonines, this prosperity did not depend "on the character of a single man." Its foundations were laid on ancient and free institutions, which, good from the first, were still gradually improving, and which alone, amongst all others since the origin of civil society, have completely solved the great problem how to combine the greatest security to property with the greatest freedom of action. It is true, however, that this golden period by no means affords us unmixed cause for self-congratulation, and contains no small alloy of human frailties and of human passions. Some of the quiet I have mentioned may be imputed to corruption, as much as some of the troubles to faction.

Excerpt from History of England, Vol. 1 of 3: From the First Invasion by the Romans to the Accession of Henry VIII This Work contains the History of the Southern Division of this Island, from its first Invasion by the Romans to the Accession of Henry VIII. To render it worthy the patronage of the public, the author has spared no pains in consulting the most ancient historians, and comparing their narratives with such authentic documents as are known to exist. Anxious, at the same time, to avoid the two extremes of prolixity on the one hand, and of brevity on the other, he has been careful to introduce nothing which he deemed trivial or irrelevant, and to exclude nothing which appeared to him important in its consequences, or illustrative of the character of the times. The historian ought not to confine himself to the barren recital of facts. It is his duty to trace the silent progress of nations from barbarism to refinement; and to mark their successive improvements in the arts of legislation and government But in the performance of this duty he must keep a steady rein on the imagination; or he will mistake fiction for truth, and write a romance in the place of a history.

Excerpt from The Literary History of England, Vol. 1 of 3: In the End of the Eighteenth and Beginning of the Ninetheenth Century It is with diffidence that the Author of the following volumes offers them to the public. The subject is a great one, and so manifold in its details that it is impossible not to have made omissions in various quarters: and especially in those on which she can pretend to least knowledge, in the graver literature of Science and Philosophy. It was intended originally that the work should extend farther, and come down to the elder figures even of our own times, the poets who are now regnant in England, and the many eminent writers who have but just departed; but the period before our own, which has formed them and us, and which reaches into our own by so many survivals, was found too rich and ample to allow of further additions.

Civil War written by Peter Ackroyd and has been published by Pan Macmillan this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2014-09-25 with History categories.
In Civil War, Peter Ackroyd continues his dazzling account of England's history, beginning with the progress south of the Scottish king, James VI, who on the death of Elizabeth I became the first Stuart king of England, and ends with the deposition and flight into exile of his grandson, James II. The Stuart dynasty brought together the two nations of England and Scotland into one realm, albeit a realm still marked by political divisions that echo to this day. More importantly, perhaps, the Stuart era was marked by the cruel depredations of civil war, and the killing of a king. Ackroyd paints a vivid portrait of James I and his heirs. Shrewd and opinionated, the new King was eloquent on matters as diverse as theology, witchcraft and the abuses of tobacco, but his attitude to the English parliament sowed the seeds of the division that would split the country in the reign of his hapless heir, Charles I. Ackroyd offers a brilliant – warts and all – portrayal of Charles's nemesis Oliver Cromwell, Parliament's great military leader and England's only dictator, who began his career as a political liberator but ended it as much of a despot as 'that man of blood', the king he executed. England's turbulent seventeenth century is vividly laid out before us, but so too is the cultural and social life of the period, notable for its extraordinarily rich literature, including Shakespeare's late masterpieces, Jacobean tragedy, the poetry of John Donne and Milton and Thomas Hobbes' great philosophical treatise, Leviathan. Civil War also gives us a very real sense of the lives of ordinary English men and women, lived out against a backdrop of constant disruption and uncertainty.
