The History of England in Three Volumes, Vol. I., Part E.
 From Charles I. to Cromwell

by David Hume

"The History of England in Three Volumes, Vol. I., Part E." by David Hume is a historical work published between 1754 and 1762. This ambitious six-volume history spans from Julius Caesar's invasion to the Revolution of 1688, covering England, Wales, Scotland, and Ireland. Written while Hume served as librarian in Edinburgh, the work was initially met with outrage from all political factions but became a bestseller, establishing itself as the standard history of England and finally bringing Hume financial independence.
