Product Description
This volume presents Macaulay’s characteristically vigorous account of eighteenth-century British political history, covering the reign of Queen Anne, the Hanoverian succession, the rise and fall of Walpole and the administrations that followed. His strong opinions, narrative energy and vivid portraits make political events unusually readable, while also reflecting Victorian interpretations of Britain’s constitutional development. The Folio edition is edited and supplemented by Peter Rowland, with an introduction by J. P. Kenyon, a portrait frontispiece and 19 plates, in richly gilt-decorated red cloth.
Originally published in the 1840's , this is a single volume edition ( originally two volumes)
