Debrett's Complete Peerage of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland Volume 1, written by William Courthope, is a comprehensive guide to the British peerage system as it existed in 1838. The book begins with an introduction to the history and structure of the peerage, including explanations of the different ranks of nobility and the privileges and responsibilities associated with each title.The bulk of the book is devoted to detailed biographical information on every peer in the United Kingdom, arranged alphabetically by surname. Each entry includes the peer's full name and title, as well as information on their family background, education, career, and political affiliations. The book also includes extensive genealogical tables tracing the lineages of each peer, as well as illustrations of their coats of arms.In addition to its value as a reference work for historians and genealogists, Debrett's Complete Peerage is also a fascinating glimpse into the world of the British aristocracy in the early 19th century. It provides insight into the social and political structures of the time, as well as the personal lives and ambitions of some of the most powerful and influential people in the country.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
