Plot

In 1688 a group of politicians invited the Dutch prince William of Orange over to England to challenge the rule of the Catholic James II. When James' army deserted him he fled to France, leaving the throne open to William. Vallance challenges the view that this was a bloodless coup in the name of progress.
