About this product
Product Information
William Gladstone, 'The Grand Old Man' of nineteenth-century politics, was Prime Minister four times. Throughout his life, women, including Queen Victoria (with whom he had a somewhat strained relationship - she famously describing him as a 'half-mad firebrand') were of great importance to him. Because he documented his reaction to people and events copiously in his diary and many letters, we know a great deal about his attitudes towards them - and their reaction to him. Gladstone's most notorious interest in women, was his mission to rescueprostitutes, which he pursued with great vigour and at enormous expense over forty years, spending many thousands of pounds in the process.. Few believed that his interest was wholly innocent, and it was said that he mainly wanted to save the younger prettier ladies of the night.

Reviews
"This study offers only superficial contextualization for Gladstone's experiences with women and therefore sheds little light on Victorian society, politics, religion, and sex. There is no serious engagement with the robust historiography in these areas, or even with studies of Gladstone. Those expecting a book with this title to draw on the insights of gender theory will be disappointed. At times disorganized and repetitious, the book also suffers from numerous editing and proofreading lapses. At many levels, therefore, this work does not realize the fascinating possibilities offered by its subject." --Joseph S. Meisel, The Historian, Vol. 70 No. 4, 2009, ' This whole book is based closely on primary sources ... a brave attempt to assess one aspect of his life, both public and private' Dr Michael Partridge, BBC History Magazine, December 2007, "This study offers only superficial contextualization for Gladstone's experiences with women and therefore sheds little light on Victorian society, politics, religion, and sex.

The item is as described and works! I'm very happy with my purchase and definitly reccomend this seller as I could easily see myself buying from them again. The only qualm I have is that they sent it in a thin cardboard/paper envelope that offered no water proofing of any kind, luckily the item arrived with no damage but the cd itself was loose in the case and the case was itself loose in this cardboar paper envelope with no additional padding or protection. Could work on packing stuff better.

The item is fine but the packaging is terrible considering how far it travelled. Also they are listed as Us seller but it’s shipping for the Uk - this is why it took weeks for me to get the item. If I would have known before that it would take that long I would be as upset as I am now. When I reached out to them they did not mention it and I found out on my own. I reached out because I was concerned that it had been a week and no movement.
