One of the great Whig historians wrote this, and I loved it. I'm sure that many of his conclusions have been subject to revisionism, but the book remains a tremendous read, with many epigrammatic gems. An everyman edition of this 1855 classic seemed exactly the right format, as I spent that summer doing some historical re-enactments and it was exactly the right size for carrying around and reading, as it was an anonymous cover.
