Summary Money drove the making of modern Britain, beginning with its role in rebuilding London following the Great Fire of 1666. Underhanded deals brokered in coffee houses fuelled British prosperity, and the country profited from dubious practices, including the slave trade, the sex industry and global colonisation. But who rebelled against the status quo during the period, and how did the armed forces counter the threat posed by Napoleon Bonaparte.
