Excerpt from Finance and Politics: An Historical Study, 1783-1885 My original idea in beginning this book, some six years ago, was to treat strictly of finance, and to take up the subject where it had been left by Sir Stafford Northcote. I was fortified by a kindly letter of encouragement from him, and - determining to put out of my mind the disadvantage under which an inferior writer must labour, who, in any way, invites comparison with such a master of English style - I intended to follow, however haltingly, in his footsteps. I soon convinced myself, however, that no natural line could be drawn at the year 1860. For the proper understanding of that year, the policy of the previous seven years had to be studied; and to understand that which was done in 1853, it was essential to master Peel's fiscal reforms. But those of Peel had followed on those of Huskisson, and to show what Huskisson did, it was necessary to show on what foundation he worked. This took the story back to the time of the Great War, from which dates so much of our taxation; and before dealing with Pitt as a War Minister, something had of necessity to be said of Pitt as a Peace Minister also.

Excerpt from Mr. Gladstone: As Chancellor of the Exchequer, a Study The following pages are offered, with all deference, as a contribution towards the study of Mr. Gladstone. They deal with one aspect only of his career and character, and do not, I need hardly say, attempt in any degree to anticipate Mr. Morley's Biography of the great Statesman. But Mr. Gladstones work at the Exchequer can be considered somewhat apart from his career as a whole. It was, moreover, the least disputed portion of his life's work, and is far enough removed from present-day controversies to enable an estimation to be made without prejudice or partiality. I am much indebted to friends for advice and assistance, and I desire especially to thank Mr. Bernard Mallet and Mr. George Barnes for the valuable help they have rendered me.
