The Derby Diaries, 1869–1878
This book contains a selection from the diaries of Edward Henry Stanley, 15th Earl of Derby, from the years between September 1869 and March 1878. The Diaries are a rich source for the politics of the 1870s covering much of the period of opposition to Gladstone's First Ministry and Derby's pivotal role in Disraeli's Second Ministry. This is also a central text for understanding Disraeli's personality and the Eastern Question. Professor Vincent's edition will be widely welcomed by all those interested in Victorian politics.
