1762 1ed British Wars Anglo-Spanish Seven Years War Annual Register Newfoundland



Through the end of the 18th-century, “The Annual Register” became the most respected journal in print. The periodical was a reference work that contained major events from each year, focusing on economics, politics, arts, trends, and world developments. Many leading historians of the American Revolutionary period, including David Ramsay, James Murray, and William Gordon “borrowed heavily from the Annual Register” (Gephart).



“This, a most valuable record and chronicle of historical and political events for over a hundred years contains accurate accounts of the Revolutionary War, as well as the revolutions in South American, the Second War with Great Britain, and many other American subjects.” ¬– Sabin.



This 1762 issue of ‘The Annual Register’, published in 1763, covers a variety of noteworthy topics including:

British declaration of war against Spain – Anglo-Spanish War

Death of Elizabeth of Russia

Notes on Seven Years’ War, final North American battle at Newfoundland
