Abstract "Sir Robert Peel (1788-1850) was one of the most significant political figures in nineteenth-century Britain, and one of the most controversial. In this new three-volume edition, the Editor brings together a range of contemporary perspectives considering Peel's life and achievements. From the first observation of his precocious talent as an Oxford undergraduate, to his burgeoning reputation as a cabinet minister, the volumes draw together sources on Peel's forty-year political career, paying particular attention to the most controversial aspects of his political life and his post-1846 career, including the unusual position he occupied in British politics before his death in 1850"-- Provided by publisher.
