This 1889 volume in the Twelve English Statesmen series focuses on Sir Robert Walpole (1676-1745), who laid the groundwork for the modern parliamentary system of government that distinguished Great Britain. ‘No intelligent reader who picks up this volume on Walpole will lay it down unread, ‘ said an 1889 review in the
New York Times.
