Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the history of British public debt and funds during the reigns of William III and Anne, with a specific focus on the establishment of the Civil List. The author examines the intricate and controversial nature of the revenue system during this period, highlighting the challenges faced by the government in securing adequate funds for both public services and the maintenance of the monarchy. Through a detailed analysis of parliamentary debates, acts, and Exchequer accounts, the author sheds light on the complexities of managing public finances during a time of political and economic transition. The book explores the interplay between the Crown, Parliament, and the financial markets, examining how the allocation of funds impacted the conduct of government and the stability of the nation. The author argues that the establishment of the Civil List was a crucial step in the development of constitutional monarchy in Britain. By separating the personal expenses of the monarch from the public treasury, it laid the foundation for a more transparent and accountable system of government. This book offers a valuable contribution to our understanding of the financial and political history of England during a pivotal period. It provides insights into the origins of public debt, the nature of royal expenditure, and the evolution of financial institutions that continue to shape the British political landscape today.
