The Session of 1811 was, beyond question, the most eventful period of Perceval's career. When it had opened he was generally regarded as a falling Minister, with a formidable majority to contend with in the House, and a Regent to whom he was personally and politically offensive. Before the Session was six weeks old he was more powerful in the House of Commons than any Minister since the days of Pitt; he had made himself a necessity to the Prince, who had hitherto regarded him as his bitterest enemy. The crisis had brought out powers of which only his most intimate associates had previously been aware. It had made him a party leader of the very first rank; it had gained him a reputation as the foremost Parliamentary Debater of the age. Only a few months before Perceval had been regarded as a weak Minister. He was supposed to owe his place to the favour of his King; he was supposed to retain it by compromise and concession.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Only once in history has a British Prime Minister been assassinated. At 5.00 p.m. on Monday, 11 May 1812, John Bellingham made his way to the Houses of Parliament carrying concealed weapons. At 5.15 p.m., as the Prime Minister, the Rt Hon. Spencer Perceval, was making his way across the lobby leading to the House of Commons, Bellingham shot him dead at point-blank range. Bellingham was immediately arrested and put on trial two days later: refusing to plead insanity, he was convicted and hanged before the week was out. Bellingham was neither a revolutionary nor a religious fanatic, but a successful young entrepreneur. What had driven him to commit such a heinous crime?In a story of suspense, revenge and personal tragedy, David C. Hanrahan tells the interwoven stories of Perceval and Bellingham, detailing not just the events of May 1812, but also the two men's histories, and what led one to take the other's life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of the Rt. Hon. Spencer Perceval, Vol. 1 of 2: Including His Correspondence With Numerous Distinguished Persons The great men of that time have, nearly with out exception, had their biographies written. Pitt has found an able biographer in Lord Stanhope; Fox, a warm admirer in Lord Russell; Addington in Pellew; Lord Eldon in Twiss; Lord Wellesley in Pearce: Lord Liverpool in Yonge; Canning in Stapleton; Castlereagh in Sir A. Alison. The Duke of Buckingham's Courts and Cabinets furnishes us with a memoir of Lord Grenville. Wilberforce, Romilly, Abbot, live in their diaries. Of the great party-leaders Of the day, two alone - Perceval and the Duke of Portland - have never had their lives written. The action of the Duke's son, in destroying his father's papers, has probably made it impossible to supply the defect in the one case. This memoir is an attempt to supply it in the other.
