Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book details the reasons why a celebrated politician, William Pitt, first Earl of Chatham, shocked the nation by accepting a position offered by his political opponent and former rival, the King's favorite, the Earl of Bute. The author goes to great lengths to provide background detail on Pitt's previous associations, political maneuverings, and his prior intense opposition to Lord Bute. The author suggests that this political alliance was both unexpected and scandalous and takes great care to explain the sequence of events that led to Pitt's apparent change of heart. This book further examines the political landscape at that time in British history and provides unique insights into the motivations and priorities of the major political players of the mid-18th century. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.

This is generally accepted as compiled by Cotes and John Almon, the publisher and journalist.with assistance and contributions by Richard Grenville-Temple, Earl Temple, Pitt's brother-in-law and also a patron of Almon. Pitt and Temple had openly disagreed and Temple retaliated with a pamphlet war, both financing them and writing them. This work was so popular that it went through at least 5 impressions (some corrected or amended) in that first year. In 1766 Pitt had declared his lack of confidence in the Rockingham government, announced that he "denied the right of the mother country to tax the colonies" and maintained that taxation was 'no part of the governing or legislative power' and recommended that the Stamp Act should be repealed. In July of that year Rockingham was dismissed and Pitt stepped in with his agenda which included in addition to the American policies to form an alliance against the Bourbons, to transfer the power of the East India Company to the Crown and to provide better government for Ireland. In early 1767 he was unable to carry on his duties due to health.
