Description

The History Of England by Thomas Babington Macaulay

The History Of England From The Accession Of James II in 5 Volumes. One of the greatest and most influential works of history. In the first half of the 19th century, Europe was convulsed by revolution: in France, Spain, Germany, Hungary and Italy, kings were deposed, governments rose and fell, blood was spilt. Britain, it seemed, was uniquely fortunate in having avoided such tumult. It took the brilliant politician and man of letters Thomas Babington Macaulay to ask: How was it that Britain remained peaceful, while, as he put it, ‘the proudest capitals of Western Europe have streamed with civil blood’? For Macaulay, the answer was to be found more than 150 years before, in the short period of British history following the ‘Glorious Revolution’ of 1688, when the British Parliament ousted one king and chose another, without the country descending into civil war. Macaulay made his case in one of the most successful and brilliant histories ever written.
