Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book tells the story of the extraordinary life of William Gladstone, one of the most important political figures of the Victorian era in the United Kingdom. The author himself lived in close intimacy with men who were Gladstone's associates in public life, and saw him through their eyes. Gladstone was a complex man, an intellectual and physical powerhouse, who served for over four hours at a stretch in debate. His powers of work were enormous, and he was an assiduous writer on non-political subjects. His religious faith was profound, and he was deeply interested in ecclesiastical questions. The author presents the full span of Gladstone's career, from his early days as a Tory MP to his conversion to Liberalism and his eventual leadership of the party. This book examines the relationship between Gladstone's moral and religious convictions and his political actions, providing insights into the character of one of the most influential politicians in British history.
