Volume I of the Oxford History of the British Empire explores the origins of        empire. It shows how and why England, and later Britain, became involved with        transoceanic navigation, trade, and settlement during the sixteenth and seventeenth        centuries. The chapters, by leading historians, both illustrate the interconnections        between developments in Europe and overseas and offer specialist studies on every        part of the world that was substantially affected by British colonialactivity. As        late as 1630 involvement with regions beyond the traditional confines of Europe was        still tentative; by 1690 it had become a firm commitment.series blurbThe Oxford        History of the British Empire is a major new assessment of the Empire in the light        of recent scholarship and the progressive opening of historical records. It deals        with the interaction of British and non-western societies from the Elizabethan era        to the late twentieth century, aiming to provide a balanced treatment of the ruled        as well as the rulers, and to take into account the significance of the Empire for        the peoples of the British Isles. It explores economic and social trendsas well as        political.
