1688 (The Lewis Walpole Series in Eighteenth-Century Culture and History)

The Glorious Revolution: A Radically New Understanding of English History by Steve Pincus is a groundbreaking book that challenges traditional views on this pivotal event in English history.

Drawing on extensive archival research, Pincus offers a fresh perspective on the revolution's impact on foreign policy, religious culture, and political economy.

He argues that the revolutionaries of 1688-1689 aimed to create a participatory state with a bureaucratic system, rather than the centralized control and repression of dissidents under James II's modernization program.

This book will change the way you think about the origins of modern England and the nature of revolutions themselves.

Don't miss out on this opportunity to reevaluate one of history's most significant events with a new, imaginative work of scholarship.
