A new survey of Gladstone's life and career, placing him firmly in the context of nineteenth-century Britain, and covering both his intriguing private life and his public career.
'An excellent, thoughtful, well researched and wholly unpretentious account of Gladstone's archetypal Victorian life, with all its energy, achievements and tension, and its dedication to the noble concepts and consolations of progress, the family and religious faith - though laced with bouts of self-delusion and touched by scandal. Whether you think of Gladstone as the `Grand Old Man' or the `Grand Old Hypocrite' this lucid, down to earth and intelligent biography will give you the broader and better informed view.' - Denis Judd, London Metropolitan University
