註釋
"Sir Richard Grosvenor (1585-1645), of Eaton Hall, Cheshire, was one of the most prominent figures in county politics during the early Stuart period. He established himself as an archtypal 'father of the country,' acting as a justice of the peace locally and representing the shire in Parliament where he spoke out in defence of the Protestant religion and the subject's liberties. The papers published here, which include jury charges, advices to his son and a speech to the Cheshire electors, illustrate the range of his political and religious concerns and the ways in which he sought to fashion himself into the contemporary image of 'a godly gentlemen.'" -- Dust jacket.
