Sir Robert Peel provides an accessible and concise introduction to
the life and career of one of the most political leaders of the
nineteenth century. Perhaps best known for seeing through the
Repeal of the Corn Laws, Peel had an enormous impact on political
life of his age and beyond. Eric J. Evans reassesses Peel's career,
arguing that although Peel's executive and administrative strengths
were great, his arrogance, lack of empathy with the development of
political parties and his inflexible commitment to economic
liberalism presented political problems which he was incapable of
solving. This expanded and fully revised second edition: fully
engages with the extensive new historical work on Sir Robert Peel
published since the first edition appeared fifteen years ago;
includes a glossary of key terms plus an updated and expanded
bibliography, including listing useful websites. Sir Robert Peel is
the perfect introduction for all students of nineteenth-century
history.
