William Ewart Gladstone
William Ewart Gladstone: Faith and Politics in Victorian Britain | David William Bebbington
1 post | 1 read
Perhaps the most eminent of eminent Victorians, a master alike of parliamentary debate and public oratory, and regarded as the greatest Christian statesman of his day, William Ewart Gladstone (1809-1898) governed Britain at a time when the country stood at the apex of world affairs. In this book historian David Bebbington presents a superb, balanced portrait of Gladstone-his character, his convictions, his actions, and his legacy.

Last plug for the #litsyreadingretreat2020 - I don‘t want anyone to miss out if they didn‘t see an earlier post.....
I‘m organising 3 days staying in the historic Gladstone Library (yes!!!! A residential library 🥰)this spring. So far we have 13 Littens coming from across the globe. Space for more if you fancy it!

Bookish_B This sounds amazing! If I‘d seen this sooner and didn‘t already have too many trips planned for the year I would totally do it! Have fun ❤️ 4y
Mitch @Bookish_B we did it last year too and loved it. I‘m sure we‘ll do it again in 2021 - save the date! 4y
