Description

Discover the untold history of a British statesman who shaped the nation. This volume of The Forgotten Prime Minister focuses on the 14th Earl of Derby and his achievements between 1851 and 1869. As the first British statesman to serve as prime minister three times, Lord Derby holds a unique place in political history. This work provides a deep look into his leadership of the Conservative party, which lasted twenty-two years from 1846 to 1868. This biography is uniquely significant because it is the first to be based directly upon his personal papers and correspondence. Readers can explore his role in major historical shifts, including his work with the 1832 Reform Act and his oversight of the Second Reform Act in 1867. From the abolition of slavery in the British Empire to establishing a national system of education in Ireland, this book covers the extensive impact of a leader who has often been overlooked by history. It is an essential read for students of British political history and biography enthusiasts.
