Revolution: The Great Crisis of the British Monarchy, 1685-1720
To an extraordinary extent, everyone in Britain still lives under the shadow of the "Glorious Revolution" of 1688. It was a massive, brutal, and terrifying event, which completely changed the governments of England, Scotland, and Ireland, and which was only achieved through overwhelming violence. Revolution brilliantly captures the sense that this was a great turning point in Britain's history, but also shows how severe a price was paid to achieve this.
