Reviews of the first edition
'The general form of this work is as flawless as can be. This remarkable book is a mass of vigour, learning and originality.' - Observer
'The chief attraction of the book will be found in Mr Namier's masterly descriptions of most of the characters that appear prominently in the political proceedings of these three years. An indispensable guide.' - Times
'No student of the period can possibly afford to neglect this important contribution to knowledge. An extremely scholarly and valuable work.' - Cambridge Review
