5.0 out of 5 stars
The masterwork of a great historian and good man,
By
This review is from: The Transatlantic Persuasion: The Liberal-Democratic Mind in the Age of Gladstone (Paperback)
It's wonderful to see The Transatlantic Persuasion back in print again. Kelley's book, one of the truly seminal works in Anglo-American intellectual history, offers insight into 19th century liberal thought that remain with one for a lifetime, especially his treament of the 'outsider' status of key figures such as Gladstone. Although this is a specialized work in a fairly narrow field, the book is very well written and accessible to anyone with even a passing knowledge of 19th century Europe and America. As a former student of Kelley's in the 1970's, I have recommended the book often over the past 30 years, with uniformly positive reactions. Kelley, who is now deceased, was a wonderful teacher and a profoundly good man.
