Description
This study explores the history of Chartism, a mid-19th-century movement in Britain that sought to bring about political reform. By examining its place within Victorian politics and evaluating topics such as the impact of Canada's rebellions and the role of children in campaigning, this collection offers a wide range of perspectives on key issues.
Written in an accessible style, this book is firmly located within Britain's tradition of writing history from below, providing an unusual variety of viewpoints on what was effectively Britain's civil rights movement. The Chartists' endurance and legacy are revealed through fresh analysis of the period.
