Richard Shannon provides a magisterial account of the fortunes of the Conservative party after the death of Disraeli, tracing the changes in party thinking and organization under the pressures of the newly expanded electorate. The rise of Lord Salisbury is thoroughly examined together with the demands of empire, the problems of Home Rule and the Unionist alliance.
