In his letters and Memorabilia entries - published here for the first time - Hatsell brought to bear his intimate familiarity with high politics during the reign of George III. Hatsell's expertise in financial policy inspired him to offer counsel to Pitt the Younger during Pitt's first premiership (1783–1801). Hatsell's other correspondents include Henry Addington (speaker 1789–1801 and prime minister 1801-1804), Charles Abbot (speaker 1802–1817), and William Eden (diplomat and President of the Board of Trade in the Ministry of All the Talents, 1806–1807). Hatsell centres his attention on the enduring constitutional significance of the changes he experienced in his public and private life. Hatsell's wry humour is often on display as he reveals the lighter side of social and political life in Great Britain.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eForeword by Sir Malcolm Jack, KCB, Clerk of the House of Commons (2006–2011)\u003cbr\u003e Acknowledgements\u003cbr\u003e List of Abbreviations\u003cbr\u003e Introduction\u003cbr\u003e Editorial Practices\u003cbr\u003e The Papers of John Hatsell, Clerk of the House of Commons\u003cbr\u003e Selected Correspondence\u003cbr\u003e Memorabilia\u003cbr\u003e Index.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Politics \u0026amp; government [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Politics \u0026amp; government\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Politics%20\u0026amp;%20government%20%5BJP%5D%22\"\u003eJP\u003c\/a\u003e], Napoleonic Wars [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Napoleonic Wars\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Napoleonic%20Wars%20%5BHBWH%5D%22\"\u003eHBWH\u003c\/a\u003e], Modern history to 20th century: c 1700 to c 1900 [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Modern history to 20th century: c 1700 to c 1900\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Modern%20history%20to%2020th%20century:%20c%201700%20to%20c%201900%20%5BHBLL%5D%22\"\u003eHBLL\u003c\/a\u003e], British \u0026amp; Irish history [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on British \u0026amp; Irish history\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22British%20\u0026amp;%20Irish%20history%20%5BHBJD1%5D%22\"\u003eHBJD1\u003c\/a\u003e], History [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on History\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22History%20%5BHB%5D%22\"\u003eHB\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45913115492632,"sku":"9781108842457","price":41.79,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/the-papers-of-john-hatsell-clerk-of-the-house-of-commons-volume-59-hardback-9781108842457","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
