The bloodless revolution : England, 1688
“England's revolution of 1688-89-known as the Glorious or Bloodless Revolution-had a profound impact on the development of British and American political, religious, legal, and social institutions-an impact even more lasting than that of the English civil wars. This study begins with a consideration of the climate of Restoration England, showing how the Restoration had failed to solve the problems that had brought on the civil wars twenty years before. Describing the crucial events of 1688, the author analyzes the personalities involved and the importance of the issues raised. He carries the study through the 1701 Act of Settlement which brought constitutional stability to England after a century of revolution.”-Publisher
