"Politics under the Later Stuarts 1660-1715" looks at party conflict in England from the origins of the party political system in the reign of Charles II to the great rage of party under Queen Anne. By combining a synthesis of the latest scholarship with original archival research, this book offers compelling new insights into the nature of the struggle between Whigs and Tories and the reasons why such bitter partisan rivalries cut so deep into English society during this period. It investigates important questions about continuity and change in political strife between 1660 and 1715 and careful attention is paid to examining the ideological roots of party strife, as well as the partisan divisions that emerged in society at large. It is aimed at sixth-form and University level and is suitable for any course which covers the period of English history 1660-1715.

Industry Reviews
