'This is the first book in any language which does justice to the subject. Mr Carr's mastery of his material has always been awe-inspiring. But here he shows more than scholarship, he shows understanding. No more important book has been published in our time.' A.J.P.Taylor, New Statesman

Reviews of the first edition 'The general form of this work is as flawless as can be. This remarkable book is a mass of vigour, learning and originality.' - Observer 'The chief attraction of the book will be found in Mr Namier's masterly descriptions of most of the characters that appear prominently in the political proceedings of these three years. An indispensable guide.' - Times 'No student of the period can possibly afford to neglect this important contribution to knowledge. An extremely scholarly and valuable work.' - Cambridge Review England in the Age of the American Revolution and its companion volume, The Structure of Politics at the Accession of George III, are Sir Lewis Namier's classic contributions to the study of eighteenth-century politics. First published in 1930, England in the Age of the American Revolution went out of print, and then appeared in a second edition. Sir Lewis Namier died shortly after beginning the task of revising the book and the work of revision was completed by Lady Namier and Mr John Brooke. This second edition completely supersedes the first, and will be indispensable to all students of English history.

From 1970 to 1977 a major project to uncover source material for students of contemporary British history and politics was undertaken at the British Library of Political and Economic Science. Fiananced by the Social Science Research Council, and under the direction of Dr Chris Cook, this project has attempted a unique and systematic operation to locate, and then to make readily available, those archives that provide the indispensable source material for the contemporary historian. This volume (the fifth in the series) provides a guide to the papers of propagandists who were influential in British public life. Included in this volume are the papers of such persons as newspaper editors, leading economists, social reformers, socialist thinkers, trade unionists, industrialists and a variety of theologians and philanthropists. In all, this volume not only completes the findings of the project but opens up the archive sources of a hitherto neglected area of research into contemporary social and political history.

The most baffling and misunderstood of Yeats's works, A Vision (1925), which is greatly different from the 1937 version, has been long out of print and is almost inaccessible. The editors have shown in introduction and notes how directly dependent Yeats was upon the experiments of his wife with automatic writing and dream visions (covering a period of six years and preserved in thirty-nine notebooks containing some 4000 manuscript pages). As Yeats wrote in the first draft of the Dedication, 'I declare that I have nto invented one detail of this system'. 'This task has been laid upon me by those who cannot speak being dead and who if I fail may never find another interpreter'. Although Yeats liked to quote Plato's admonition that none should enter the doors of the Academy who were 'ignorant of geometry'. The symbolic forms of psychic geometry outlined in A Vision were not in fact based on Plato, Swedenborg, or others of the classical writers Yeats often cited but rather on the experiments and thinking of his many friends and fellow students in the Order of the Golden Dawn and in the Society for Psychical Research. BY inquiring into the conception of A Vision and the circumstances and people surrounding Yeats while it was beign written, and by annotating the hundreds of unidentified allusions and references to art, philosophy, and literature, the editors have illuminated one of the strangest spiritual autobiographies of our time.
