My guest today is George Owers, author of the widely acclaimed new history book “The Rage of Party” about Britain in the late 17th and early 18th Century.
Today we discuss:
- How the first political parties – the Whigs and the Tories - developed during this period
- Why this period has been relatively ignored compared to other times such as the Tudor, Elizabethan and Victorian eras
- The wild media environment and political characters during this time and
- What political conservatives can learn from studying this period
And much much more.
I hope you enjoy our discussion.
