Description

This collection of primary materials draws on the rolls of Parliament and the Journals of the two Houses, as well as manuscript sources, material from eighteenth-century serials and from various collections of debates. It chronicles British Parliamentary history from 1066 through the reign of George III.

The history is arranged chronologically with separate addresses, lists, King's speeches, Parliamentary papers and so on. A table of contents, as well as an occasional index of speakers precedes each volume.

Lists of members of Commons are sometimes included in the text. Some political pamphlets are reprinted. Copies of treaties and other papers laid on the Table may be included.

Much Parliamentary debate and many speeches are shortened herein. Moreover, debates are not always entered in chronological order.

This title is available in hard copy in the stacks (J 301 .H5).
