Excerpt from A History of England in the Xviiith CenturySeveral attempts have been made in the way of compromise to obviate these evils, and to combine the advantages of hereditary and of elective monarchy. One theory of govern ment which was widely diffused in antiquity, and which may be traced far into the middle ages, but which has now passed alto gether out of the sphere of practical politics, was that royalty was hereditary in a single family, but that the chiefs, tribes, or nations had the power of electing whom they pleased from among its members.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
