Making War: Common Soldiers and the Forging of Britain’s Atlantic Empire in the Seven Years' War. This study treats soldiers as laborers and the professional army of the time as an essential component to the fiscal-military state that protected merchant capital in the imperial environment. The book examines the British state, empire and army in the 18th century, casting warfare in economic terms as an instrument of the primitive accumulation of capital.
