From the blurb: "The impact of Europe on a newly-discovered world of America has long been a subject of historical fascination. Yet the impact of that discovery and conquest for the European conquering powers has traditionally received less attention. In this pioneering 1992 book J. H.

Harper Perennial, 2005 12mo (19 cm), XXX, 632 pp, plates. Laminated wrappers (paper slightly browned). "William Pitt the Younger was one of the most extraordinary figures in British history. Prime minister at the age of twenty-four, he went on to dominate British politics for two decades, presiding over such complex and treacherous national crises as the madness of King George III, the beleaguered union with Ireland, the fallout from the French Revolution and the trauma of the Napoleonic Wars. With the keen eye of an experienced politician, William Hague examines the enigmatic life and tumultuous times of a man capable of both wit and arrogance, economic genius and financial mismanagement. A rich cast of characters and a vivid backdrop of global conflict make this riveting biography of Pitt the Younger compulsive reading." (from the blurb)

"More than any other historian of the present day Hexter must be held responsible for the breaking of a circle of explanation, one which had prevailed fro three or four generations and which had come to constrict imagination and intellect alike. This was the convention which demanded that all historical change must be referred to the rise and fall of social classes, and most of English history to the rise of the middle classes. His critical work severs the stalk at the point where it springs out of the ground." (from the Foreword by Peter Laslett)
