Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This polemical work argues that the Crown's historical power to elevate individuals to the peerage is the only means to prevent the British House of Lords from succumbing to the will of the House of Commons and thereby precipitating a dangerous democratization of the British government. The author's historical analysis rests on the authority of numerous Lords Committees and parliamentary commissions who researched and published on the subject, particularly as it relates to the dignity of the peerage and the establishment of Parliament itself. The author goes so far as to suggest that the Crown's prerogative of elevating peers might be the nation's only hope of preserving the three-tiered government structure in the face of growing popular demand for political reform, namely the right to vote, which had become increasingly heated in the era following the Napoleonic Wars and the passage of the Reform Act of 1832.
