The English Revolution [also known as The Glorious Revolution or the Revolution of 1688] was the deposing of the Catholic King James II and VII of England, Scotland and Ireland by his daughter Mary and the subsequent accession to the throne of Mary and her Dutch husband William III of Orange. James had remained childless for eleven years and the birth of his son in 1688 precipitated the revolution, creating as it did the prospect of a Catholic dynasty rather than the succession of his Protestant daughter Mary. De Peyster quotes praise of William of Orange as the man who "rescued the Protestant religion in Europe and saved the Church of England here." In this pamphlet de Peyster writes about a group of of men and women who exerted powerful influence over the development of events during the revolution. Among them, each with his or her portrait, are William, Mary, John Locke, Isaac Newton, Jonathan Swift, Edward Stillingfleet, Sir William Temple, the Duke of Marlborough, Queen Anne, John Dryden and Edmund Halley.
