1759: The Year Britain Became Master of the World
Frank McLynn
Although 1759 is not a date as well known in British history as 1215, 1588 or 1688, there is a strong case to be made that it is the most significant year since 1066, due to two great battles where Britain beat France for global supremacy and founded the first British Empire.
