The life of her late Majesty Queen Anne, as well before her accession to the throne as after. Together with all the transactions of her reign, relating either to the proceedings of parliament or convocation, to peace or war, the union of two kingdoms, and such other events as are requisite to render her history complete. Wherein her conduct during the last four years of her reign is not only vindicated, but shewn to be most beneficial and glorious to Europe in general, and to her own kingdoms in particular.
