The Annual register of world events. - Burke, Edmund (Dodsley's annual register, 1758)
Index vols. also called: Dodsley's annual register.
Originated with Robert Dodsley, at the suggestion of Edmund Burke, who was for some years editor and principal contributor.

Rivington published a rival continuation, which lasted from 1791 to 1812, and again from 1820 to 1824, when the two united to form one publication. Cf. Lowndes. Bibliographer's manual, v. 1
