This new edition of Early Modern England: 1485–1714 builds on the strengths of the original as a lively, up-to-date survey of the Tudor–Stuart period. Written by two leading scholars and experienced teachers of the subject, it shows how, under the Tudors and the Stuarts, England transformed itself from a feudal and relatively minor European state into a constitutional monarchy and the wealthiest and most powerful nation on Earth. For the second edition, the authors have updated the book throughout in the light of recent scholarship. INDICE: List of Plates. List of Maps. Preface to the Second Edition.
