While there are many works on British liberalism, this is the first to deal substantially with the transatlantic and international content of liberalism. Gerlach considers the transatlantic thought of prominent contemporary figures such as William Gladstone, John Morley, William Harcourt and Andrew Carnegie. A fascinating account that paves the way for the political and social rapprochement of the twentieth century.

MURNEY GERLACH is Director of The Rhode Island Historical Society, and over the past twenty years served as an archivist, librarian, historian, and senior administrator at several universities.
