Annual Register

The Annual Register (originally subtitled "A View of the History, Politicks and Literature of the Year ...") is a chronicle of British and world history published annually since 1758. It was founded by Edmund Burke (who was its editor for many years) and Robert Dodsley and has had many different publishers since.
