Description

The 18th century used to be a wealth of knowledge, exploration and abruptly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made imaginable by advances within the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works within the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are to be had in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars.
Rich in titles on English life and social history, this collection spans the world as it used to be known to eighteenth-century historians and explorers. Titles include a wealth of trip accounts and diaries, histories of nations from all the way through the world, and maps and charts of a world that used to be still being found out. Students of the War of American Independence will find fascinating accounts from the British side of conflict.
