The Secession From Parliament Vindicated is a book written by Christopher Wyvill in 1799. The book is a defense of the secession of a group of Whig politicians from the British Parliament in 1797. The secession was a protest against the government's handling of the war with France and its curtailment of civil liberties. Wyvill argues that the secession was a legitimate and necessary act of political protest, and that the government's response to it was unjust and authoritarian. He also defends the principles of parliamentary reform and popular representation, arguing that these are essential to the proper functioning of a democratic government. The book is written in a clear and persuasive style, and is an important historical document of the period. It provides valuable insights into the political and social context of late eighteenth-century Britain, and sheds light on the debates and controversies of the time. Overall, The Secession From Parliament Vindicated is a significant contribution to the history of British politics and democracy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
