Description
First published in 1930, as the second edition of a 1922 original, this book contains material from a series of Tudor constitutional documents, together with a detailed historical commentary of the period. The text was aimed specifically at Cambridge students and the documents selected were chosen mainly for their accessibility in Cambridge University Library and the College libraries. It was based upon a course of lectures on later constitutional history delivered to Tripos candidates at Cambridge. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in the Tudor period and the development of the British constitution.
