Halévy's teaching led him to undertake annual trips to England, during which he became the intimate friend of many of the most important scholars and political figures of the age. He thoroughly explored the Jeremy Bentham manuscripts at Cambridge for his work on philosophical radicalism and over the years developed a deep and intensive knowledge of all the sources of 19th-century English history. ***In 1901 he began to work on the first volume of his masterpiece, the "History of the English People in the Nineteenth Century" (published from 1913 onwards). In the first volume, he described England in 1815 and sought to explain how England avoided violent social change. "If economic facts explain the course taken by the human race," he wrote, "the England of the nineteenth century was surely, above all other countries, destined to revolution, both politically and religiously." Neither the British constitution nor the Established Church was strong enough to hold the country together. He found the answer in religious nonconformity: "Methodism was the antidote to Jacobinism." He did not write his history in chronological sequence, nor did he live to complete it. The second and third volumes of this history (1923) carried the story up to 1841. Then Halévy, profoundly moved by World War I, turned his attention to the period from 1895 to 1914. The two volumes on this period (published in 1926-1930) were written with considerable detachment, considering the immediacy of the problems he discussed. [Wiki] ***"Epilogue (1895-1905) Book I: Imperialism" is one in this series of volumes on the history of the English People, the complete edition being as follows: England in 1815, The Liberal Awakening (1815-1830), The Triumph of Reform (1830-1841), Victorian Years (1841-1895), Imperialism and the Rise of Labour (1895-1905), and The Rule of Democracy (1905-1914) ***First impression of the first UK paperback edition - published just before the war in 1939. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc. …
