Reader reviews for Vindication Of The English Constitution In A Letter To A Noble And Learned Lord (1835)

From the publisher

Vindication of the English Constitution in a Letter to a Noble and Learned Lord is a political treatise written by Benjamin Disraeli in 1835. The book is a defense of the British system of government and its institutions, which Disraeli believed were threatened by radical reformers and revolutionaries. The letter is addressed to an unnamed noble and learned lord, who is presumed to be sympathetic to Disraeli's views. Disraeli argues that the English Constitution is a product of centuries of evolution and is therefore better suited to the needs of the country than any new system that might be proposed. He also defends the monarchy, the House of Lords, and the established church, which he sees as essential components of the British way of life. In addition to his defense of the English Constitution, Disraeli also addresses a number of contemporary political issues, including the Poor Law and the need for social reform. He argues that the poor should be helped, but that this should be done in a way that encourages self-sufficiency rather than dependence on the state. Overall, Vindication of the English Constitution in a Letter to a Noble and Learned Lord is an important work of political philosophy that reflects Disraeli's conservative views and his belief in the importance of tradition and stability in government.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
