Reviews

Ever alert, Dorothy Thompson probed beneath the outer surface of evidence. The results were innovatory. Her work brought to life the intense and dangerous interior world of working class meetings, conventions and newspapers. --Sheila Rowbotham, Guardian Awesome is an over-used word in modern parlance, but Dorothy Thompson's knowledge of Chartism was just that. She was the pre-eminent historian of the movement. --Owen Ashton, Labour History Review Dorothy Thompson brought her extraordinary knowledge of Chartism together with a passionate commitment to democratic change. Her lifetime's work on the movement remains unsurpassed in its range and historical vision. --James Epstein, Vanderbilt University From the Trade Paperback edition.
