About This Item
Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, May 1993. Trade Paperback. First Edition. As new. No remainder mark. 228 pages.
A concise, illustrated history of Great Britain over nearly three centuries since the union with Scotland in 1707. The general theme is the interaction of state and society--specifically the interplay of parliament and the electorate. The author argues that conservative politics prevailed largely in a deeply conservative society, and that reactionary causes generally obtained more support than radical campaigns.
