The History of England (Originally titled The History of Great Britain) (1754-62) is an enormous History of Great Britain, tracing events from the Saxon kingdoms to the Glorious Revolution. It was a best-seller in its day. It was written by David Hume (1711-1776) an 18th-century Scottish philosopher, economist, and historian, considered among the most important figures in the history of Western philosophy and the Scottish Enlightenment. More a category of books than a single work, Humeas history spanned afrom the invasion of Julius Caesar to the Revolution of 1688a and went through over 100 editions. Many considered it the standard history of England until Thomas Macaulayas History of England.
