Power, alliance, legacy, and loss converge in these quiet records. Every title hides a story. Barak Longmate's A Supplement to the Fifth Edition of Collins's Peerage of England gathers the marriages, births, promotions, deaths and successions of the English peerage in the later eighteenth century, forming an indispensable British peerage reference for anyone drawn to the fabric of aristocratic life. Conceived as an update to Collins's standard work, it functions today as a richly detailed genealogical reference book and aristocratic family register, charting British nobility lineages at the height of Georgian era nobility and political influence. For family history researchers and historians of British aristocracy, Longmate's methodical record of titles, marriages and deaths illuminates the shifting alliances that shaped parliament, court, and county society in 18th century England. As a work of Burke's Peerage-style genealogy and a natural Debrett's Peerage companion, it offers clear, contemporary evidence for the genealogy of English peers and their interconnected houses, making it a cornerstone source for serious enquiry and an absorbing treasury for the curious reader. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure, bringing a foundational work of peerage scholarship back into circulation for libraries, scholars, and private collectors alike.
