Book Description:
|
Looking at the historical evolution of the central political institutions, and the social milieu surrounding them, this book helps to explain Britain's preeminence during the nineteenth century. The "political" history of the country--a substantial part of the book--provides the necessaryfoundation for a social history that focuses particularly on issues of demography, religion, social class, and gender.
