Tim Harris 
Politics under the Later Stuarts [PDF ebook] 
Party Conflict in a Divided Society 1660-1715

The first major study of party conflict in England over the later Stuart period from the reign of Charles II to its culmination under Anne. Tim Harris shows how the party configuration of subsequent British politics emerged in these crucial years. He deals not only with high politics and with the organisation of the new parties, but also with the ideological roots of party strife.
