"The Government of England (Vol. I)" by A. Lawrence Lowell is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book examines the structure and function of the English government, particularly focusing on the impact of Parliament and the Crown on the nation's political system. It addresses significant changes over time and highlights the contemporary political landscape, making it relevant for readers interested in political science and constitutional studies. The opening
of the text introduces the concept of the English Constitution and its evolution, emphasizing how the Crown has historically been at the center of political power. It outlines the legal structure, the role of public officers, and the gradual transfer of power to ministers, leading to the establishment of a responsible government. Through discussions on the functions and limitations of the Crown, the text sets the stage for a deeper exploration into the government’s workings in the chapters to follow. This introduction establishes a foundation for understanding the complexities and historical context of the English political system, which is the primary focus of the work.
