"Walpole and Chatham (1714-1760)" by Esdaile, Bell, and Winbolt is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work focuses on significant political events and personalities in England during the early to mid-18th century, particularly the roles of figures like Sir Robert Walpole and William Pitt. It likely examines the complex interplay of power, political factions, and public sentiment during a transformative era in British history. At the start of the book, the opening portion outlines the historical context surrounding the death of Queen Anne and the subsequent ascension of George I. The narrative describes the political climate, highlighting the shock and consequent turmoil among different political factions, specifically the Whigs and Tories. It discusses the early reactions to the new Hanoverian dynasty, with letters depicting parties' dispositions and the public's sentiments, setting the stage for conflicts and shifts in power that characterized the period.
