Explore a rare piece of British political history with The Parliamentary Diary of Sir Richard Cocks 1698-1702. Published by Oxford University Press, this work provides a unique window into the English Parliament during a period of significant change. As a Gloucestershire country gentleman and an enthusiastic new member of Parliament, Cocks recorded the four sessions between 1698 and 1702 with a keen eye for the drama and importance of the proceedings.

It is an essential resource for those studying the evolution of English party politics and the social history of Britain.
