The Whig Revival: 1808-1830 (Studies in Modern History)by William Hay
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Between 1808 and 1830, the Whigs made a remarkable transition from opposition to office that highlights important trends in early 19th century Britain. The Whig Revival examines how a coalition between provincial interest groups and the parliamentary party established them as a viable governing party by 1830. Where earlier studies have focused on the Whigs experience in government or liberal reform movements, this work examines their years in opposition and how the struggle for power broadened the political nation beyond metropolitan elites. About the AuthorWilliam Anthony Hay is Assistant Professor of History at Mississippi State University and a Senior Fellow with the Foreign Policy Research Institute.
