Review Quotes:
'This book fills a very obvious whole in the historiography of early modern Britain, by adopting a three-kingdom viewpoint and at the same time highlighting the wider, Atlantic and global perspective of the country's rise to international power. All students of the formation of empire will welcome Trevor Burnard's book.'
