Government and Reform - Britain 1815-1918
This book provides an engaging account of the development of democracy in Britain, from the 'unreformed' political system around 1815 to the parliamentary Reform Acts passed between 1832 and 1918. The author examines the impact that this period of constitutional change had upon the political life of the country, including the extension of the franchise, the limiting of the power of the House of Lords, the introduction of the secret ballot and the elimination of corrupt practices.
