This book explores the major political debates in England during the final decades of the eighteenth century, a period when responses to the American and French Revolutions were a major concern and the entire future of public life in England was in question.

Offering an in-depth treatment of the political pamphlets and literature of the time, this book examines the voices of both the radicals and their detractors. The volume attempts to do justice to the talented radical Whigs Edmund Burke demeaned in Reflections on the Revolution in France, and who have been long forgotten, buried unfairly under the memory of the excesses of French revolutionary violence.

This accessibly written volume is perfect for undergraduates, graduates, and professors of history, political science, and literature.

Mark Hulliung has published widely on topics concerning cultural, intellectual, and political history, European and American. His most recent book is The Saga of Edmund Burke: From His Age to Ours. Five countries have come under his purview: England, Scotland, America, France, and Italy. The Rise and Fall of English Radicalism, 1760 to 1800
