Politics without Democracy by Michael Bentley
Politics Without Democracy provides an entertaining and highly original view of how Britain made a peaceful transition to representative democracy - a change characterized in other countries by convulsive and bloody civil strife.
"Refreshing, inspiring and elegant, there are few historians active today who could write at once as stimulatingly and as readably" Historical Journal
"The challenge implicit in Bentley's task is great. His response is witty, intellectually exciting, stylistically seductive, and itself stands as a challenge to broad perspectives on Victorian politics." Victorian Studies
"Bentley writes with a wide fund of knowledge; his judgements are shrewd and always worth considering. Encrusted orthodoxies are often challenged and negative home truths are brought into the open." Times Higher Education Supplement
Michael Bentley is Professor of Modern History, University of St Andrews.
