Groundbreaking in its approach, this is the definitive biography of William Pitt the Eldera brilliant, yet tragic, British statesmanWeaving together military history and political biography, Edward Pearce provides a portrait ofBritain's leaderduringthe Seven Years' War. Alongside detailed descriptions of battles in Europe and North America, we follow Pitt's career as a politicianone that was closely intertwined with General James Wolfe at Quebec; American independence; and, the slow mind of George III and the quick one of the rake and outsider John Wilkes. Posterity has invested Pitt with a mystique and presented him as heroic, a titan, a brilliant statesman, and military strategist.This bookscrutinizes the reputation and investigates the extent to which Britain's victories and imperial advances can be credited to Pitt alone or to a coalition of commanders, naval administrators, and foreign allies. Pitt the man is also revealedvain, ruthless, tortured with physical illness, succumbing to mental collapse.This is amasterful portrait of arguably the most powerful minister ever to guide Britain's foreign policy and of an age that marked a new epoch in history, when the balance of power in Europe and the world was set for almost two centuries.
