Upper Sixth - Gladstone

There is a useful potted history of Gladstone here with useful links. The Roy Jenkins biography of Gladstone is very good and highly readable. There is a copy in the Library and it is widely available in paperback (from all good bookshops and some bad ones). You might find it useful to dip in to the bits relevant to his First Ministry. Here is today's quote - enjoy - All generalizations are dangerous, even this one. Alexandre Dumas.
