About this copy

The story of Catholic Emancipation is one of the great political battles in British history, and Antonia Fraser tells it with the storytelling flair her readers have come to love. Beginning with the Gordon Riots of 1780 and running to the passing of the Emancipation Bill, she brings to life a vast cast that includes George III, the Prince of Wales, Wellington, Peel, Lord Winchilsea and Daniel O'Connell. Acclaimed by the Sunday Times for her unrivalled gift as a storyteller, Fraser makes narrative history at its very best.

A handsome hardback with its original dust jacket, the striking purple and gold design still bright and eye-catching.
