Book Description
Excerpt from Bolingbroke and His Times: The Sequel The Marchmont Papers which, scrutinised in their relation to letters of the same date, afford invaluable explanations, as well as the Diary which is the best comment on Bolingbroke's later activities; and together with the entire Hardwicke Letters, which we have for the first time transcribed in our ao companying Appendix, prove his material assistance in forming the Broad Bottom Administration, his close connection with Pitt in the latter's Patriot days, and his earnest endeavours to procure a Peace in 1742 - 44.

Book Description
Excerpt from Bolingbroke and His Times The age of Anne and the commanding figure of Boling broke will always fascinate. Without derogating from my predecessors, to some of whom I am indebted, I may say that the first has not been exhausted, nor the second as yet understood. This is an attempt to present from original sources, and with the fresh materials recently to hand, some adequate portrait of a great genius and of the crowded background in which he moved.

Book Description
"Behind this study lie two questions. Why is Bolingbroke, known primarily as a rationalist philosopher of the Enlightenment, so worshipped by English conservatives who are themselves, since Burke, so set against what the Enlightenment represents in political, social, and religious thought? The second question relates to Bolingbroke's public life. How does one explain the intense animosity between Bolingbroke and Walpole which provides the energy for English political life between 1725 and 1740? Is it mere vindictiveness, ambition, jealousy, or the inevitable reflex of the 'outsider' against the 'insider'? Or is it, as the late Victorian writers thought, their falling out at Eton which forever fated them to be protagonists?"—from the Preface.
