Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a defense of the British constitution against the author's detractors, demanding that the people of England ought and must rescue themselves from the disgrace of monarchy, explaining that hereditary monarchy is particularly bad and that the Hanoverian succession in England is contemptible. The author argues that the rights of man are imprescriptible, we should not be bound by the decisions of our ancestors, and that governments should be democratically elected. The author's main ideas rest upon an antipathy to monarchy which they state is based upon historical precedents and experience. This book is an important work for students of British history and politics, as it provides a unique perspective on the debate over the role of monarchy in the late 18th century.
