Description
The Casualties of Peterloo by M. L. Bush is a historical account of the 1819 mass protest in Manchester, England, which turned violent and resulted in significant loss of life. On that fateful day, thousands gathered to demand democratic reform and an end to corruption. The event became known as the Peterloo Massacre, and its legacy continues to shape British politics and society today. This book provides a detailed examination of the events leading up to the massacre, its aftermath, and its lasting impact on British history.
