Representative Statesmen, Vol. 1 of 2 (Classic Reprint): Political Studies: Political Studies (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
This book explores how the illustrious statesmen, Thomas Wentworth, 1st Earl of Strafford, and Sir Robert Walpole, 1st Earl of Orford, governed England in the 17th and 18th centuries respectively. In a time of tyranny and instability, Wentworth was an iron-fisted Lord Deputy of Ireland, oppressing the Irish people and cementing his control with a powerful army. The author paints a vivid picture of Strafford's despotic reign and the methods he employed to keep the Irish people in check. In contrast, Walpole was a cunning Minister of Peace, navigating a complex political landscape with deft diplomacy and shrewd financial policies. Through the lens of these two historical figures, this book delves into the contrasting approaches to governance, shedding light on the complexities and challenges of 17th and 18th-century England.
