''Seven Letters Concerning The Politics Of Switzerland: Pending The Outbreak Of The Civil War In 1847'' is a book written by George Grote and originally published in 1876. The book is a collection of seven letters written by Grote, a British historian and politician, to his friend and fellow historian, John Malcolm Ludlow. The letters were written between 1844 and 1847, during a period of political turmoil in Switzerland that ultimately led to the outbreak of a civil war in 1847.In the letters, Grote provides a detailed and insightful analysis of the political situation in Switzerland, including the various factions and parties vying for power, the role of the Swiss federal government, and the tensions between the different cantons. He also discusses the impact of external factors, such as the influence of neighboring countries and the European balance of power.Throughout the book, Grote expresses his admiration for the Swiss political system and its commitment to democracy and decentralization. He also offers his own opinions and recommendations for how the Swiss government could navigate the challenges it faced.Overall, ''Seven Letters Concerning The Politics Of Switzerland'' is a fascinating historical document that sheds light on a pivotal moment in Swiss history and provides valuable insights into the workings of democratic government.With The Addition Of An Unpublished Letter Written By The Author To Alexis De Tocqueville Shortly After The Termination Of The War.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
