British Periodical Press and the French Revolution 1789-99
By: Andrews, Mr Stuart
Published by: Palgrave
This study challenges the conventional polarities used to describe British politics of the 1790s; Pitt versus Fox, Burke versus Paine, Church versus Dissent, ruling class versus working class, Jacobin versus anti-Jacobin. Such polarities were sedulously promoted by Pitt's wartime government, which applied 'Jacobin' shamelessly to all its critics and opponents, and thus foreshadowed the McCarthyite tactic of guilt by association. The author seeks to make the less strident but more persuasive contemporary voices again audible. He takes seriously those who questioned the necessity for Burke's crusade to destroy the French republic, and who deplored Britain's alliance with the partitioners of Poland.

British Policy in Persia, 1918-25
By: Sabahi, Houshang
Published by: Frank Cass
Viewed from the perspective of Whitehall, Persia was a crossroads
where Britain’s European and Indian interests met. Control of Persia
by any European power was bound to jeopardize the security of
British India. A threat to India could in turn be used as a lever to
upset the balance of power in Europe. To forestall this danger, Britain
tried various policies. At first London and India hesitantly
experimented with the policy of bringing Persia into the British
sphere of influence either by contracting an alliance with her or by
turning her into a protectorate. Persia’s crushing defeat in the war
with Russia put an end to these experiments. The Turkomanchai
Treaty of 1828 firmly established Russian influence at Tehran.
