Footnote
Peel: People Before Party
1 The last such private banknote was issued by a Somerset bank, Fox, Fowler & Company, in 1921.
2 Before 1832 women were not specifically excluded from the franchise.
Pugin: The Hand of God
1 Barry, passing in his coach, had seen the fire too, and had rubbed his hands as he proclaimed, ‘What a chance for an architect.’
2 See chapter on Prince Albert.
Albert: Behind the Throne
1 The present Queen did the same for the Duke of Edinburgh, who takes precedence over the Prince of Wales by letters patent.
2 The first trip was from Leicester to Loughborough to attend a temperance meeting.
Disraeli: The One-Nation Conservative
1 It is fascinating to speculate on how much Ricardo influenced Peel as they served in the Bullion Committee together in 1819.
Gladstone: An Eminent Moralist
1 These historical exchange rates are not precise but whatever rate is used it was still a considerable amount.
2 Two of Gladstone’s biographers suggest different daughters, Agnes or Mary. Agnes almost died in 1847, the year in which Mary was born, so seems the more likely of the two.
Gordon: Servant of the People
1 The child, Quincey, as Gordon had named him, would in due course become chief of police on the Shanghai–Nanking railway.
2 He thought the Seychelles the site of the Garden of Eden.
Dicey: Call of Duty
1 This argument was also applied during the more recent Northern Ireland Troubles, and resulted in the Diplock courts.
Grace: The Superstar
1 For any non-cricketing reader ‘carrying your bat’ is applied to an opening batsman who is still not out when all the other batsmen have lost their wickets. It is a rare occurrence last achieved in an Ashes Test by an Englishman by Alastair Cook in 2017/18.
Victoria: Pole Star
1 This is the Prince Leopold who became King of Belgium and was close to both Victoria and Albert.
