Excerpt from A Dialogue on the Best Form of Government It has therefore seemed to me that a compact statement of the principal arguments for and against each form of government would be suited to the wants of readers of the present generation. As the best mode of accomplishing this object, I have selected the dialogue form, which affords facilities for bringing on the stage the advocates of conflicting Opinions, without any attempt at a decision, or at leading the reader to a dogmatic result.

First published in 1908, this book takes the form of a discussion between Henry Martin- a professor, Charles Stuart- a banker, and Sir John Harington- a gentleman of leisure, on politics and civilisation. The speakers discuss many topics ranging from forms of society (such as oligarchy or democracy), to the institution of marriage, to the necessity of government.
