From the earliest settlements in the Americas, the British Empire grew to encompass nearly 25 percent of the earth’s landmass. Created from a diverse array of companies, colonies and dominions, these nations helped the United Kingdom to develop into the world's leading power by the end of the 1800s. Driven by a desire to expand economically and commercially, Britain was driven by mercantilism. Over time, the connections between Britain and its empire grew increasingly close. By the time of the First World War, the colonies were a main source of soldiers, supplies and support for Britain. Following the Second World War, the United Kingdom began a gradual policy of de-colonization. As colonies became independent, self-governing nations, they were offered to join the British Commonwealth. Encompassing a total of 53 nations, the modern Commonwealth is a throwback to Britain's colonial past. In his book entitled The Rise and Fall of The British Empire: Mercantilism, Diplomacy and the Colonies author Phillip J. Smith chronicles the ascent and descent of this once great empire.

This familiar pattern, with its familiar missing comma, is used to introduce each and every one of the books published by Make Profits Easy LLC in every single one of their blurbs. This book is quite possibly the worst book I have bought in years. I think many of the other reviewers may be astroturfing.Awkward language, misused words, amateur writing style, awful font, nonstandard punctuation, and no paragraph justification leave me little faith that the author gave proper treatment to his epic topic. The chapter on World War I is 9 paragraphs long. Not pages. Paragraphs. But the font is so huge and there's so much white space, he managed to get a few pages out of it.I have no faith in the content of this book, and indeed I fear I may have become stupider reading it.Who is the author of this terrible tome? Beats me. They don't bother to describe Phillip J. Smith's qualifications. Nothing in the book is footnoted nor sourced. Oh, it does have 5-book bibliography, although it doesn't specify what information came from which. I really doubt that Smith added any original value at all through his telling, as he's obviously not a professional historian, so you might as well get his supposed source books instead. They are:Abernathy, David. The Dynamics of Global Dominance, European Overseas Empires 1415-1980 (Yale University Press)Ferguson, Niall. The Rise and Demise of the British World Order and the Lessons for Global Power (Basic Books)James, Lawrence. The Rise and Fall of the British Empire (St. Martin's Press)Kennedy, Paul. The Rise and Fall of the Great Power (Harper Collins)Porter, Bernard. The Lion's Share: A Short History of British Imperialism 1850-2004 (Edinburgh Gate)Note how Smith shameless steals the title of source #3. Classy.

For more details about this miserable excuse for a scholarly piece of work see the other reviwers who judgedthis to be worthy of one or zero stars. I gave up after 4 chapters and then, on reading other reviwers discovered that information I was not alone in my displeasure. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY OR YOUR VALUABLE TIME.

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. The writing style is readable and I would recommend it. B By Benjamin H. Flemingexcellentaccountonthecourse of thevye This book has many interesting detail about the various parts of the former British empire. However it should have had more detail of the Boers in South Africa and about the Maoris in New Zealand. The book could have had more analysis and reasoning. The writing style is readable and I would recommend it. B. Fleming
