 Join us for Volume 4, Chapter 22 of the captivating series by Baron Macaulay (1800-1859), where we explore the rich tapestry of English history leading up to the era of the Stuart kings. Macaulays insightful narrative examines the decline of divine right and the rising power of Parliament, highlighting the pivotal accession of William and Mary‚Dutch Protestant royalty‚to the British throne. This chapter not only showcases Macaulays literary brilliance but also offers a fascinating perspective on 18th-century English and global politics. (Jim Mowatt)
