About this book

Volume four of Thomas Babington Macaulay's history continues his account of England under William III in the years following the 1688 Glorious Revolution. It suits readers interested in British political and constitutional history and in nineteenth-century historical writing. *Note: The supplied "subject area: devotional" appears to be a cataloguing error; this is a work of political history, and the description reflects that.*
