Description
This book, based on extensive research in British and Maltese archives by a constitutional expert, reassesses in a clear and objective manner the early association of Britain and Malta and analyses the early Malta Constitutions in their historical background.
As stated by the author, the period covered (the first half of the nineteenth century), which brought together from different geographical regions two peoples of different geographical regions two peoples of different ethnic, cultural and religious backgrounds (to say nothing of temperaments), was for the Maltese essentially one of change, a crucial period which was certainly as turbulent as it was fascinating.
