Book excerpt: "William Pitt, 1st Earl of Chatham PC (15 November 1708? 11 May 1778), called William Pitt the Elder by historians, was a British Whig statesman who led Britain during the Seven Years' War (known as the French and Indian War in the United States). He again led the country (holding the official title of Lord Privy Seal) between 1766 and 1768. Much of his power came from his brilliant oratory. He was out of power for most of his career, and became famous for his attacks on the government, such as Walpole's corruption in the 1730s, Hanoverian subsidies in the 1740s, peace with France in the 1760s, and the uncompromising policy toward the American colonies in the 1770s."--Wikipedia.

This book was released on 2018-02-12 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from William Pitt, Earl of Chatham, Vol. 1 of 3 IT is a somewhat humiliating reflection that it should have been reserved to a German scholar to write the first detailed biography of the elder Pitt which has appeared in recent years. The lives written by Mr. W. D. Green and by Mr. Frederic Harrison in the Heroes of the Nations and in the Twelve English Statesmen series are in their way admirable; but the exigencies of space forbade the exhaustive treatment of events made by Dr. Albert von Ruville. The latter has made great use of the Newcastle Manuscripts in the British Museum, that mine, which has even now by no means been worked to its full extent, and of the diplomatic reports pre served in the Record Offices in London and Berlin. When the bearing of the evidence depends so much on the prejudices and inclinations of the witness, and when the mass of material is so great as to necessitate selection, there will always be room for much difference of opinion. Dr. Von Ruville at once proves his title to be considered an impartial critic by the manner in which he deals with the stock German charge against the British negotiators of the Treaty of Paris, 1763, of having betrayed their ally Frederick the Great. With this instance before us we must admit that, if we find ourselves differing from the author, the fault does not arise from any lack in him of the judicial temper.

This book was released on 2017-10-12 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from William Pitt, Earl of Chatham, Vol. 3 of 3 We have already seen What political principles came into vogue at the court Of Frederick, Prince Of Wales, how these principles were evolved by Lord Bolingbroke, and how adopted by his friends and disciples. The qu1ntessence of them was, that the king ought to rule in accord With Parliament, and that this accord ought not to arise from a subordination of the one power to the other, but from the harmony existing between them - the king being impelled by his patriotism and intelligence, Parliament by its character as a free assembly representing the whole nation, to act exclusively in the interests of the nation. I endeavoured at the time to prove that these ideas were based upon false premises, and were, consequently, incapable Of realisation. All they did was to provide the divergent elements, the groups representing wholly discordant interests, with common aims, and to unite them upon a fixed programme. To a practical Statesman, or a ruling sovereign, they were useless. Such an one would inevitably and speedily recognise that for him there were only two alternatives - to lead or to be led. Prince Frederick, if he had come to the throne, would have been obliged either to relinquish the principles in question or to be guided by them only in appearance. The inevitability Of one or other of these lines of action, which he never fully realised, became all the more evident to his son. Hence George 111. Appeared to deviate from his father's principles, and differences of opinion arose between him and many Of those who had been loyal friends of Leicester House.
