Overview

"Cassell's History of England, Vol. 6 (of 8)" by Anonymous is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The volume covers British history from the death of Sir Robert Peel to the illness of the Prince of Wales, with a focus on significant political and social events during the reign of Queen Victoria. The book likely aims to provide a detailed and illustrated narrative of England's political landscape and key figures during this era. The opening portion of the book introduces the significant topics of the Papal Aggressions and the Ecclesiastical Titles Bill, which stirred considerable public and political unrest in England during the early 1850s. It outlines how the government was formed in response to these controversies, alongside detailing pivotal events such as the Great Exhibition in Hyde Park, which was aimed at showcasing industrial progress. The text also highlights the political tensions within and outside the British Parliament, illustrating how figures like Lord John Russell and Lord Palmerston interacted within the turbulent political climate of the time, culminating in shifts in government and policy due to these pressures.
