Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the complex and often overlooked world of the British monarchy, exploring how the Crown's power has evolved over centuries and the intricate mechanisms of government that have sprung up to support it. The author takes us on a historical journey through the development of England's governmental structure, examining how the role of the King as the executive transitioned into a more complex system involving various departments and officials. We see the author meticulously tracing the evolution of institutions like the Exchequer, the Law Courts, and the Chancery, showcasing how they arose from the King's need to manage finances, dispense justice, and communicate his decisions. The book goes on to describe how the Secretaries of State gained prominence, becoming departmental chiefs rather than merely conduits for the King's wishes. This shift highlights a crucial transformation in the power dynamics of the Crown. The author also delves into the intricate workings of the British Empire, examining the constitution of the colonies, the relationship between the Crown and the Church, and the role of the judicial system. The book explores the development of local government within the United Kingdom, and the unique features of the Irish and Scottish systems. The author provides a fascinating insight into the intricacies of the British system of government, uncovering the historical forces that have shaped the relationship between the Crown and its subjects. This book is a valuable resource for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the historical development of the British monarchy and its evolving power within the ever-changing landscape of the British Empire.

paperback. Etat : Very Good. Most of our very good books have only minor imperfections such as shelf wear consistent with a new book that's sat on a bookshop shelf for a year or two. Occasionally we may miss other minor imperfections as we have to grade books at speed. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing.
