This book presents two discourses by Benjamin Disraeli on the principles of British Conservative Party and Liberal Party in the nineteenth century. The first speech, Conservative Principles, was delivered at Manchester, on April 3, 1872, in response to the accusation from the Liberal Party that “the Conservative Party has no programme of policy”. The second speech, Conservative and Liberal Principles, was delivery at Crystal Palace, on June 24, 1872, and presents a contrast between the policies of the Liberal Party and the Conservative Party.
Disraeli talks about the relevance of institutions as the monarchy, the House of Commons, the House of Lords, the Church etc to the prosperity, the freedom, and the rights of British people. He also discusses subjects as domestic and foreign affairs, conditions of agricultural labour, and improvement of health and sanitary conditions for the population.
