The Annual Register (originally subtitled "A View of the History, Politicks and Literature of the Year ") is a long-established reference work, written and published each year, which records and analyses the year's major events, developments and trends throughout the world It was first written in 1758 under the editorship of Edmund Burke, and has been produced continuously since that date In its current form the first half of the book comprises articles on each of the world's countries or regions, while the latter half contains articles on international organizations, economics, the environment, science, law, religion, the arts and sport, together with obituaries, a chronicle of major events and selected documents
1775 was a momentous year for the British colonies in America, so this volume describes all of the political actions on both the British and American sides, and also describes the fighting at Lexington and Concord
