A new edition of the Conservative History Journal, now in its 20th year, has been published this month. Its seventy pages cover a wide variety of topics, ranging from Sir Robert Peel’s triumph at the general election of 1841 to the Duke of Edinburgh’s association with the free market Institute of Economic Affairs in the late 1970s.

There are three articles by Alistair Lexden on the following subjects: Disraeli’s first premiership in 1868; Lord Salisbury and the House of Lords; and the assassination of Field Marshal Sir Henry Wilson MP in 1922.

The texts of these articles were posted on this website after they had been written last year: the first in March 2021, the second in May 2021, and the third in August 2021.

A subscription to the Conservative History Journal costs £15 a year. Subscription forms can be supplied by Alistair Lexden, who is Chairman of the Conservative History Group, for whom the Journal is produced.
