Joseph King MP - A Political Reading List

The LSE has what is probably the most complete collection of Joseph King books outside of the British Library.  I need to update my literature listing to reflect my findings!

Two of Joseph King's books, nestled in the LSE library
(the rest are in the archives!)
King's first work in 1890 reflects his legal training, then in the early 1900s he has an electoral reform focus, then from 1918 there is a distinct interest in the Russian and German political situation, and then in the 1930s an interest in educational reform.
