  Charles James Fox was one of the most dynamic figures in 18th-century British politics. Notorious for the excesses of his private life, he was also one of the leading politicians of his generation, dominating the Whig party and polite society. His views on the major issues of the day - such as the American War of Independence and the French Revolution - helped to form the character of Whiggery. This study of Charles James Fox sets him within the political and social context of his time.
