Excerpt from Political Progress in the Nineteenth Century A more ambitious work followed. AS Maurice had influenced his earlier years, so Burke dominated his later development. For the character and writings Of the great Statesman Mr. Macknight conceived an enthusiasm, which ended only with his life. In The History Of the Life and Times of Edmund Burke, Of which the three volumes were published between 1856 and 1860, he produced a work of great ability, and abiding value. For many years it remained the stand ard authority, and at the time of his death the author was engaged in completing a new edition of it, and an annotated edition of Burke's works, to which several years of patient research had been devoted.
