We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself.

Edward Raymond Turner was born on May 28, 1881 in Baltimore, Md. He was the son of Charles and Rosalind (Flynn) Turner.
After attending the public schools of Baltimore he matriculated at St. John's College, Annapolis, receiving the degree of B. A. in 1904. Shortly thereafter he entered the graduate school of the Johns Hopkins University, where he devoted himself to the study of history. In 1910 he received the degree of Ph. D.
He was called to Bryn Mawr College as associate in history; and, after remaining there one year, he accepted a professorship of European history at the University of Michigan.
While occupying that chair, from 1911 to 1924, Turner established himself as an able and attractive lecturer. In the field of historical research he devoted himself to English constitutional history. At first he planned to study the development of the cabinet during the reign of the early Hanoverians, but he eventually extended his research through the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.
His early contributions to the English Historical Review (such as the one published in April 1915) and the American Historical Review brought him into prominence both in England and the United States, and during the remainder of his life he continued his study of conciliar development.
By reason of his abundant learning and energy Turner was also able, during the same time, to produce numerous manuals that enjoyed wide popularity. Thus there appeared: Ireland and England (1919); Europe, 1789 - 1920 (1920); Europe since 1870 (1921); Europe, 1450 - 1789 (1923); and Europe since 1789 (1924).
In 1924 Turner accepted the professorship of English history at Yale University. The following year he was selected to succeed his former teacher, John Martin Vincent, as professor of European history at the Johns Hopkins University, and he returned to his native city.
At the Johns Hopkins he entered upon his new duties with great enthusiasm, invigorating the department of history and injecting new interest in the study of recent European diplomatic history. Strenuous academic duties, however, did not prevent him from progressing toward the completion of his magnum opus, for in 1927-28 appeared two volumes on The Privy Council of England in the Seventeenth and Eighteenth Centuries.
Unfortunately, the premature death of Turner prevented him from completing his work, but two more volumes, left by him in type, were published in 1930-32 under the title, The Cabinet Council of England in the Seventeenth and Eighteenth Centuries, while materials for another were left with his widow. It was his desire "to make these four volumes a repository of all the available information on his subject". Final conclusions, "flowing from the evidence, " were to follow.
