First published in 1965, The English Militia in the Eighteenth Century sheds light on English politics and government by examining the militia, from the Restoration to the days of the younger Pitt. The militia played a significant role in the conflicts between the king and parliament in the later seventeenth century and in the power struggle between the elder Pitt and the Duke of Newcastle. Raised and officered by county and parish authorities, the maintenance of the militia presented a constant challenge of how to utilize the machinery of local government for national purposes. The gentry had to be persuaded to assist, and the militia, like other national and local institutions, was shaped by their response to prevailing fashions and the extent to which they responded. The book holds interest for students of history, political science, and literature.
