Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. First edition, first impression with full number line. Some minuscule edge wear to top and bottom of jacket and spine, some very slight yellowing to page fore edges, not price clipped (£25.00), no inscriptions, internally clean tight and square, over…all a vg+ copy, looks unread. 386pp, map endpapers. On a hot late summer's day, a crowd of 60,000 gathered in St Peter's Field, Manchester. They came from all over Lancashire ordinary working class men, women and children walking to the sound of hymns and folk songs, wearing their best clothes and holding silk banners aloft. Their mood was happy, their purpose wholly serious: to demand fundamental reform of a corrupt electoral system. They had come to listen to Henry 'Orator' Hunt. By the end of the day fifteen people, including two women and a child, were dead or dying and 650 injured, hacked down by drunken yeomanry after local magistrates panicked at the size of the crowd. Four years after defeating the 'tyrant' Bonaparte at Waterloo, the British state had turned its forces against its own people as they peaceably exercised their time honoured liberties. As well as describing the events of 16th August 1819 in shattering detail, Jacqueline Riding evokes the febrile state of England in the late 1810s, paints a memorable portrait of the reform movement and its charismatic leaders, and assesses the political legacy of the massacre to the present day. As fast-paced and powerful as it is rigorously researched 'Peterloo, The Story of the Manchester Massacre' adds significantly to our understanding of a tragic staging post on Britain's journey to full democracy. Quite a scarce book. Jacket after Richard Carlile (illustrator).
