Excerpt from England Under Lord Beaconsfield: The Political History of Six Years From the End of 1873
Tms Book is an attempt to tell the story of a very striking episode in the Political History of England. These half-dozen years are marked off from the times which preceded them, and are likely to be severed from the period that follows them, by deep dividing lines. They have witnessed a great Political crisis, which will be as interesting to the historian as to the party politician of the future. I venture to hope that the careful contemporary study I have been able to give to these events will do something to facilitate the fuller understanding of the political character istics of the time. I h0pe, however, that the book may be more immediately useful in view of the coming General Election. There are thoughtful people in all the constituencies who are not content to take their impressions of late events from party speakers on either side, and who would wish, before.

Excerpt from England Under Lord Beaconsfield: The Political History of Six Years From the End of 1873
I hope I have enabled such readers to test the statements of Ministerial and Opposition candidates by the very words of official Despatches, of Parliamentary documents, and of acknowledged speeches and writings. I have in all cases supplied the means of verifying my statements, and though I have exercised my own judgment freely, and expressed my opinion strongly, I have at least given the reader every opportunity of testing the fulness and accuracy of the premises from which my conclusions are drawn.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book tells the story of the 1874 General English Election. In the wake of economic prosperity, the author details the Liberal government's hopes for the election and their belief that new legislation would favour their incumbency. However, the author reveals the ways in which the Conservative party used this prosperity to criticize the Liberal government's popularity, as well as concerns around the position of the House of Lords in legislative matters. The author further illustrates how the election campaign became a game of opposing messages wherein the Liberals campaigned on their financial record while the Conservatives focused on social issues like education and temperance. Overall, the book offers valuable insights into the prevailing political climate of England in the mid-19th century, revealing the complex interplay of economic, social, and political factors that shaped the outcome of this pivotal election.
