1707 Queen Anne 1^ed Memoirs of England MAPS Abel Boyer Parliament Politics Wars

Abel Boyer was a 17^th-century English historian who is regularly remembered for his account of the life and reign of Queen Anne of England. It was in his ‘History of Queen Anne’ that he describes proceedings in British Parliament, royal speeches, as well as political debates. This 1707 ‘anonymous’ edition is still credited to Boyer; however, according to the ESTC it was edited and collected by an author simply named Gibson. This work is without question one of the best 18^th-century examples of biographies of Queen Anne, especially considering the inclusion of commentary on the political and diplomatic state of England from the Reformation through the fifth year of Anne’s reign, 1707.
