Excerpt from George Canning and His Times: A Political Study
The scope of this little book forbids regular references, but I have mentioned in the text or in notes most of the authorities to whom I am specially indebted. For the earlier part of Canning's career the Malmesbury Papers, the Grenville Memoirs, and certain Reports of the Historical mss. Commission are the most valuable of the original authorities; for the later the Wellington Despatches contain a mine of wealth.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book offers an appreciation of George Canning, one of the most intellectually gifted statesmen of the 19th century. A contemporary of the Duke of Wellington, Canning's forensic skills as a speaker in Parliament were renowned, and he served as Foreign Secretary under both Lord Liverpool and the Duke. The author argues that Canning's preoccupation with intellectualism, witticism, and tactical, clever maneuvering ultimately proved to be an obstacle to his wider political acceptance and success, despite his formidable intellectual gifts and many achievements. The author maintains that Canning has not received the same level of recognition as other statesmen of his era, but that a reassessment of Canning's career and his contribution to British history is long overdue. This book will be of interest to students, scholars, and general readers with an interest in 19th century British history and politics. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9781330875599_0
