Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a detailed historical exploration of the Palace of Westminster, home of the British Parliament, and the dramatic political events that shaped its present form and role as the home of the 'Mother of Parliaments'. The author, an expert in the history of parliament and political institutions, traces the evolution of Parliament from its early meetings in the Palace to its modern incarnation as the world's most famous legislature. The book is illustrated with numerous historical images, from early sketches of Parliament in session to detailed plans of the Palace buildings, that give a vivid sense of the physical and political landscape in which British parliamentary democracy developed. The book's insights into the history, traditions, and controversies of Parliament shed light on some of the most important questions about the nature of representative government and its role in shaping the course of history. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N� de r�f. du vendeur 9781334711664_0
