Chartist Lives: Forty-two pen portraits that tell the stories of Chartist leaders and activists by Mark Crail
The forty-two biographies in this book tell the life stories of the brave, inspiring and sometimes highly eccentric men and women who made Chartism happen. Drawing on the author’s Chartist Ancestors website and twenty-plus years of research, it reveals the lives not just of the movement’s better-known leaders but of the committed activists who worked tirelessly for the People’s Charter.
