Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An essential starting point for anyone wanting to learn about life in the largest empire in history, this two-volume work encapsulates the imperial experience from the 16th–21st centuries. From early sixteenth-century explorations to the handover of Hong Kong in 1997, the British Empire controlled outposts on every continent, spreading its people and ideas across the globe and profiting mightily in the process. The present state of our world—from its increasing interconnectedness to its vast inequalities and from the successful democracies of North America to the troubled regimes of Africa and the Middle East—can be traced, in large part, to the way in which Great Britain expanded and controlled its empire. The British Empire: A Historical Encyclopedia addresses a broader range of topics than do most other surveys of the empire, covering not only major political and military developments but also topics that have only recently come to serious scholarly attention, such as women's and gender history, art and architecture, indigenous histories and perspectives, and the construction of colonial knowledge and ideologies. By going beyond the "headline" events of the British Empire, this captivating work communicates the British imperial experience in its totality.

Download or read book The British Empire written by John Stewart and published by McFarland. This book was released on 1996 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At its height, the British Empire encompassed three-quarters of the world. Hundreds of countries came under the domination of the British Empire at various stages in history. Through the Commonwealth of Nations, the Empire is very much alive even today. From Aden to Zululand, all the crown's holdings from the beginning of the meaningfulness of the word holdings, around 1493, through 1995, are included. Each possession is an entry: the date it became a part of the British Empire; the date it gained its independence (when appropriate); a description of its geographic location, and its capital; a history of British rule of the colony is followed by a listing of the British administrators, such as residents, governors, commissioners and ministers. There are extensive see references; a thorough index to alternate geographical or political names completes the work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Encyclopedia of the British Empire, Vol. 2: The First Encyclopedic Record of the Greatest Empire in the History of the World Although no mention will be made here of the immense number of small inland canals, for local navigation or irrigation purposes, which exist in various countries of the Empire, there are several highly important systems, largely used by shipping, which call for special description. The canals of the British Isles have a total length of 4,673 miles. This figure, however, includes rivers which have been converted into canals. England and Wales possess 3,641 miles of these waterways, Scotland 184 miles and Ireland 848 miles. No recent statistics are available giving the annual amount of merchandise passing over the system, but it is estimated to be about 60,000,000 tons. A Royal Commission, appointed in 1906, delivered a report in 1909 suggesting a development scheme under an Inland Water Board. Four main systems were advised, which could be developed from the existing canals. These routes were to radiate from a centre in South Staffordshire (present canal system) to (1) the Mersey (Liverpool), (2) the Humber (Hull), (3) the Severn (Gloucester and the Bristol Channel), and (4) the Thames (London). Large sections of these routes already existed, but were to be improved and made available for barges up to 100 tons. A Canal Control Committee was appointed by the Government in 1917, and this board now controls about 1,200 miles of inland waterways. The Railway Executive Committee also administers just over 1,000 miles of these shallow canals. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
