Excerpt from A History of the British Empire in the Nineteenth Century, Vol. 1 The period dealt with in this volume is probably the most important in the history of Modern England, so no apology is needed for commencing a History of the Nineteenth Century at the year I 793. Indeed, it would be impossible either to describe the condition of the country in 1801, or to continue the narrative of the war with France, without some account of the events which occurred during the last few years of the eighteenth century.

Excerpt from British Imperialism in the Eighteenth Century The imperialism of to-day rests principally upon the desire for union with fellow-subjects over sea, and upon the belief that without Greater Britain the mother- country would become (in Lord Curzon's words) merely the inglorious playground of the world. Its motives are thus the gratification of national sentiment, and the strengthening of national influence. A wide gulf separates this creed from that which guided England while she built her empire. Hardly a flicker of racial feeling brightens the worldly wisdom which led to her triumphs in the eighteenth century. Even Chatham failed to realise that in commercial relations the Briton across the Atlantic should not be treated as an alien by the Briton at home. The conception of an Anglo-Saxon brotherhood, though it dawned on Benjamin Franklin, was unknown in England.

Excerpt from Great Britain and Prussia in the Eighteenth Century: Being the Ford Lectures Delivered in the University of Oxford, Lent Term 1922 IN the choice of a subject for the Ford Lectures I was guided partly by the advice Of Professor Firth and partly by the memory Of the war. Professor Firth urged that I should deal with foreign relations, to which I was sufficiently inclined by my own studies and predilections. And the particular foreign relations were suggested by two considerations connected with the war Germany has been so dominated and inspired by Prussia during the last half-century that in common usage the two terms have come to be regarded as almost synonymous. The recent struggle against Germany seemed to give a peculiar interest to our earlier relations with the predominant province of our late enemy. Also I was impressed by the danger that the retrospect Of the past might be coloured by the hostility aroused during the conflict. Against this danger - already conspicuous in the course of the war - and against the degradation Of history to be the handmaid Of political passion I could, at any rate, Offer a passive protest. And there was a further consideration which had some weight. It was in our relations with Germany in the eighteenth century that the Often divergent interests of Britain and Hanover were most conspicuous. The difficulty of regulating the foreign policy of a ruler who has to safeguard the welfare Of two imperfectly united states is one which confronts the British Empire, now that it has become more and more a mere personal union' in which great self-governing units claim a share in the direction Of what should be a common policy.

Excerpt from Britain and Her Rivals: In the Eighteenth Century; 1713-1789 The eighteenth century is probably the period of English History with which Englishmen are least familiar. It lacks the pageantry and picturesqueness of earlier times, while the problem of the British Constitution was practically settled with the expulsion of the Stuarts. Consequently the years between the wars of Marlborough and the wars of Bonaparte are commonly regarded as uninteresting in spite Of the fact that during those years was fought out the great struggle which in the end rent the British race in two, but not till it had secured to the English-speaking peoples the empire over North America and India an empire which resisted the mighty onslaught of Napoleon, has since expanded over Australasia, and bids fair to absorb no small part of Africa.

Excerpt from English Society in the Eighteenth Century: As Influenced From Oversea Similarly were ramifications of world empire responsible for changes in the character and struc ture of the nation. Here, too, the lessons learned in business were responsible for the development of metropolitan standards, of civic and national con sciousness, and of a new morality in political life. The influx of wealth eventually benefited the entire nation and happily resulted in a higher standard of living. Furthermore the pursuit of wealth which was open to all helped to break down the barriers of caste, to level class distinction and to rebuild on the foundation of the old, a social structure which was comparatively mobile and fluid. Finally the growth of a new spirit of philanthropy at home and abroad may be traced to England's awakened responsibility for the moral and religious welfare of its world empire.

Excerpt from A Short History of England, and the British Empire A narrative that takes into account. The expansion of England into Greater Britain necessarily carries the author far afield. To compress the story into a small manual like the present means that the topics to be discussed must be carefully chosen and a mass of interesting and even important materials must be excluded. The type of text-book that attempts to tell the story of national development with a fulness of detail is the despair of the teacher of history: the facts come in such throngs that very few of them are able to make any lastingimpression. The author has striven to avoid this by including such facts only as have seriously affected the course of English history or have definitely contributed to the building of the British Empire. It'is, of course, true that the demands of the narrative have frequently interfered with the con sistent application of this rule, but in the main it has been followed.
