Description
Excerpt from The Government of the British Empire
IT is, perhaps, needless to say, that this book is not in tended to compete with the standard works on the Consti tution which have been produced by eminent writers, such as the late Sir William Anson, the late Bishop Stubbs, or Professor Dicey, happily still with us. Still less does it claim to rival the classical monographs on the various aspects of the Constitution which are the work of experts in the strict sense. It is written only in the hope that those who have not yet the leisure, or who have not. Yet arrived at the age, to appreciate these larger works, will be enabled by it to look forward to that advantage at a later date. And the immedi ate prospect of a largely increased electorate, combined with the great stimulus of interest in problems Of government pro duced by the war, would seem to make that hope reasonable.
