Libro Prima edizione
Soft cover. Condizione: Very Good. 1st Edition. "Charles Townshend, His Character and Career" by Sir Lewis Namier, was delivered as the 1959 Leslie Stephen Lecture, and published by Cambridge University Press in pamphlet format. This is the First Edition. ************************************************** Lord Townshend was the principle author of what are collectively called the "Townshend Acts" which played such a large part in instigating the American Revolution of Independence. There were five acts, which were : The New York Restraining Act 1767 passed on June 5, 1767 ; The Revenue Act 1767 passed on June 26, 1767; The Indemnity Act 1767 passed on June 29, 1767; The Commissioners of Customs Act 1767 passed on June 29, 1767; and The Vice Admiralty Court Act 1768 passed on July 6, 1768. *************************************************** These acts were immensely unpopular in the Colonies, and eventually resulted in the Boston Massacre, which acted as a match to tinder. Since Namier's lecture covered Townshend's entire career (albeit briefly), there is more to this pamphlet than a mere aside to the American Revolution. It's a fascinating lecture about a person, now largely forgotten - at least in the United States - but who played such a large part in one of the most important chapters in world history. **************************************************** SERIES : Leslie Stephen Lectures / TITLE : Charles Townshend, His Character and Career / AUTHOR : Sir Lewis Namier (Sir Lewis Bernstein Namier, 1888 - 1960; born Ludwik Bernstein Niemirowski in Russian - Controlled Poland; he emigrated to the U.K., studied at Oxford, and became a British Subject in 1913.
