About this book

The Constitutional History of England, Volume 4 is the closing volume of Henry Hallam's landmark survey of the English political constitution from the accession of Henry VII to the death of George II. Henry Hallam (1777-1859) was one of the leading English historians of the early nineteenth century and a central figure of Holland House liberal circles. First published complete in 1827, the Constitutional History traced parliamentary, legal, and ecclesiastical institutions across three centuries and became the standard Victorian reference on the subject. Volume 4 covers the eighteenth century, with chapters on the Hanoverian succession, the role of cabinet government, the position of the established church, and the relationship of Crown and Parliament. The work shaped Macaulay's generation of Whig historians and remained an authority well into the twentieth century.
