A History of Modern England, Volume 1 (Barnes & Noble Digital Library‪)‬

This five-volume history of modern England was published between 1904 and 1906. Regarded as a masterwork, The New York Times said of the series, “[Paul’s] work is brilliant, epigrammatic, interesting.” Paul begins the first installment of this brilliant series by detailing the political history of modern England as well as developments in art, science, religion, and culture. He begins in 1846 from the resignation of Sir Robert Peel and ends with a thorough analysis of the second part of the Russian War in 1855.
