Book Description
Excerpt from A Sketch of the Life and Character of Sir Robert Peel This work violates no confidence. It is not written to please any family, or party, nor to uphold any reputation, unless truth can uphold it. It is written by one near in blood to the deceased, but not too near, as he trusts, for impartiality. If otherwise unfit for the office which he has assumed, at least he is free from those disturbing causes arising from family and party connection, which too often convert the biography of a statesman into a panegyric and a satire.

Forgotten Books uses state-of-the-art technology to digitally reconstruct the work, preserving the original format whilst repairing imperfections present in the aged copy.

Sir Robert Peel
Author: Richard A. Gaunt
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 0857716840
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 240
Book Description
Sir Robert Peel - paragon or pariah? Peel was the greatest statesman and political leader of mid-Victorian Britain, a titan of Conservative politics, whose legacy has inspired generations in his party and in British political life. In a career spanning forty years he held the greatest offices of state including Chief Secretary to Ireland, Home Secretary, Chancellor of the Exchequer and was twice Prime Minister. He was the first acknowledged leader of the Conservative Party and the Founder of Modern Conservatism. Yet Peel's seemingly peerless reputation has never been secure. The Repeal of the Corn Laws split his party, his 'Peelite' supporters joined the Liberals and the Conservatives remained in opposition for thirty years. Richard Gaunt, drawing on a huge archive of state papers, contemporary writings including Peel's own Memoirs and the latest historiography, paints a convincing picture of Peel as an exponent of effective government in the modern industrial state and a calculating practitioner, supremely self-confident, who dominated both his Party and the House of Commons. Gaunt's revisionist life of Peel will be essential reading and the standard work for students and general readers interested in Conservative and mid-Victorian political history and historical biography.
