Peel, Gladstone and Disraeli - Richard Salter

This new volume brings together primary material from the period 1830-1890, a rich and fascinating period of British history. The volume traces the early careers of Peel, Gladstone and Disraeli, their time as Prime Ministers, and the evolution of both the conservative and liberal parties. It also includes material on foreign policy and the important question of Ireland. This volume is specially designed to respond to the changing trends in history examinations at 18 plus, most of which now demand the study of documentary sources and the testing of historical skills.
