The History of Political Transactions, and of Parties: From the Restoration of King Charles the Second, to the Death of King William is a historical account written by Thomas Somerville in 1792. The book details the political events and parties that emerged during the period following the restoration of King Charles II to the throne in England in 1660, up until the death of King William III in 1702. Somerville’s work provides a comprehensive overview of the political landscape in England during this time, including the reigns of Charles II, James II, and William III. He examines the major political parties, including the Whigs and Tories, and their roles in shaping the political and social climate of the era. The book delves into the major events of the period, such as the Glorious Revolution of 1688, the Exclusion Crisis of 1679-1681, and the reign of James II, which was marked by his attempts to promote Catholicism and his eventual overthrow. Somerville’s writing style is engaging and informative, providing readers with a detailed understanding of the political and social context of the period. His work is a valuable resource for anyone interested in British history, political theory, or the development of political parties.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
