Publisher's Synopsis
""Sir Robert Peel: An Historical Sketch"" is a book written by Lord Dalling that provides a comprehensive overview of the life and political career of Sir Robert Peel, a prominent British statesman who served as Prime Minister twice in the 19th century. The book covers Peel's early life and education, his entry into politics, his role in the repeal of the Corn Laws, his leadership of the Conservative Party, and his contributions to law enforcement and public safety as the founder of the modern police force. Dalling's account is informed by his own experiences as a diplomat and politician, and he draws on a wide range of primary and secondary sources to provide a nuanced and detailed portrait of Peel's life and legacy. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in British history, politics, and law enforcement, and provides a fascinating glimpse into the life of one of the most important figures of the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
