Kings, politicians, accomplishments, and failures are detailed in this engrossing seven-volume history of England between 1713 and 1783. What emerges is a colorful portrait of an era, dominated not by dates and facts but by people and momentous events. In this second volume, Mahon discusses the years 1720 through 1740: starting with the accession of Walpole and Townshend and ending with the declaration of war against Spain.
