Picking up where Hallam’s classic history ends, at the death of George II, Charles Duke Yonge traces how the British constitution changed over the following hundred years. He covers the struggles between Crown and ministers under George III, the Regency, Catholic emancipation and the Reform Bill of 1832, which he judges a deeper change than the Bill of Rights itself.
A solid Victorian account for readers of British political history who want to know how parliamentary government took its modern shape. Download the free EPUB.
