Excerpt from A Students Manual of English Constitutional History English AN author needs to justify the appearance of so ambitious and yet so imperfect a work as I fear this will be found A twofold reason has prompted its compilation. In the first place, text-books on Con stitutional History are few, and experience suggests that those which exist deal with the subject on unsatis fac'tory lines. The development of an institution is subordinated to the details of a general narrative. No doubt the natural interest in the play of individual character will always place so-called political history in the van of historical pursuits. But if the study of history is, as it promises, to become a great educational medium, it is to the history of institutions rather than of dynasties or of individual men that we must look to provide the fittest mental training. As a preliminary it is necessary to trace the evolution and growth of each institution or set of institutions separately and apart from the accidental events of contemporaneous political history. Otherwise the institution is lost sight of in a mass of unimportant personal detail; it is difficult to pick up the threads Of its development while the attention of the student is at every turn called off to irrelevant matter, and the mind altogether fails to comprehend the great impersonal movement by which an institution shows itself to be something greater than the greatest man who has helped to mould and to work.

Excerpt from English Constitutional History: A d104-Book for Students and Others A second Edition of this work being required, I have taken the opportunity to revise it carefully throughout. While preserving the original arrangement, I have added much fresh matter, and several portions, more especially the Chapter on 'the Succession to the Crown, ' and the last Chapter on the Progress of the Constitution since the Revolution, ' have been to a considerable extent te-written. The latter chapter, from a fear lest the volume should extend to an inconvenient length, had originally been too much compressed. It has now been broken up into two chapters, which will, I trust, be found to treat with adequate fulness the important topics which fall within the post. Revolutionary period.

Excerpt from A Manual of the English Constitution: With a Review of Its Rise, Growth, and Present State My object, in the following work, has been to trace, historically, the rise and growth of the English Constitution, down to the period when our political institutions had acquired all the elements of they present maturity, - that is, to the Revolution; and then to describe and explain the rights, duties, and mutual action of those institutions as they now exist, modified by changes in the laws, and by Parliamentary Government and procedure since the Revolution. The work originated in a lecture I delivered in 1854; and I have employed the leisure which a retirement of three years from the profession of the Law has afforded me, and in that employment found a pursuit congenial to my former professional occupations, to amplify and extend it. The result is the present book, which I venture to hope may be found to contain a concise but comprehensive account of the Constitution; - of its institutions; of the legislation by which the freedom and rights it confers en the people have been secured; and of its merits and advantages as a system of Government.
