Description:In this book Donald Southgate portrays Whiggery in its last generations. He shows how an aristocratic combination with its roots in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries failed to adjust itself to the conditions of the Britain of the Industrial Revolution and the Great Depression of the 1870s and in 1886 disappeared from the world of politics, while the Conservatives by a tremendous effort of adaptation contrived to present a mass electorate with an effective image.Southgate is also concerned to show that while the Whigs failed in the end to remain contemporary, they did retain a considerable, though gradually declining, influence for fifty years after the passing of the Great Reform Bill in 1832 and he does not belittle their positive contribution to the peaceful progress of Great Britain during a time of European revolution, nor the importance the basic principles for which they stood.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
