Power, law, and loyalty collide in the making of the British constitution. History lives in these pages. The Parliamentary or Constitutional History of England (Volume X) is a landmark parliamentary history reference, drawn from speeches, acts, petitions and state papers that chart the evolving relationship between the English Parliament and monarchy up to the Restoration of Charles II. Compiled by several hands in the eighteenth century, this constitutional history volume stands as a meticulous primary source document collection, indispensable for anyone tracing English Civil War politics, the conflicts and compromises of seventeenth century England, and the long story of early modern British history. Scholars will value it for academic constitutional law research and as a rich Blackstone Commentaries companion; general readers and classic-nonfiction collectors will find an engrossing window into how arguments over taxation, religion and royal prerogative shaped the modern British state, page by patient page. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint -- a collector's item and a cultural treasure. Beautifully suited for legal historians, students of parliament, and Hallam Constitutional History readers alike, this authoritative volume offers both an absorbing historical narrative in documents and a tangible link to the sources that helped define the British constitutional tradition.
