Title
Essays on the history of England from Henry VII to the Commonwealth
Date
[?1791-1840]
Writer
Elizabeth, Princess (1770-1840)
Description
Essays on Henry VII (f 2 - f 8 v); Henry VIII (f 10 - f 18 r); Edward VI (f 19 - f 23 v); Mary I (f 25 - f 30 v); Elizabeth I (f 32 - f 46 v); James I (f 48 - f 51 r); Charles I (f 52 - f 74 r); the Commonwealth (f 75 - f 79). This volume ends abruptly and appears to be partly drawn from "The history of England from the invasion of Julius Caesar to the revolution in 1688" by David Hume. This volume is in the same hand as GEO/ADD/43/15 and is believed to be the hand of Princess Elizabeth.
