Summary: "The Life of the Rt. Hon. Sir Charles W. Dilke, Volume 2" by Stephen Lucius Gwynn is a historical account written during the early 20th century. This volume delves into the life and political career of Sir Charles Dilke, a notable figure in British politics, focusing on significant events in his life from 1883 to 1886, including electoral reform, foreign policy initiatives, and domestic issues of the Liberal government in which he served. At the start of this volume, the narrative addresses the critical electoral reforms that were dominating discussions among Liberal politicians in late 1883, particularly the evolving tensions between key figures like Mr. Chamberlain and Lord Hartington. Through a series of Cabinet meetings and interactions, Dilke's pivotal role in advocating for comprehensive electoral reforms is revealed, showcasing his alliances and conflicts within the government. Additionally, the text foreshadows monumental challenges that Dilke and his contemporaries would face, such as the complexities of the Soudan situation following the disastrous Hicks expedition, along with the concurrent political maneuvers regarding the rights and responsibilities of the British government in Egypt.
