England and the New King amid Empire’s Transformations
BR M Cochrane surveys King George’s fragile reign at a pivotal era. He foresees imperial consolidation, an imperial senate, and constitutional clashes with the Lords, while Europe faces Austro Hungarian crisis, German naval threat, and shifts toward protectionism and female enfranchisement. The next decade promises upheaval, tests of leadership, and a strengthened British global role.
