The Diaries of Samuel Bamford

Robert Poole

4.9/5 (9874 ratings)

Description:Samuel Bamford's well-known autobiographical "Passages in the Life of a Radical" and "Early Days" are among the most important sources for the social history of the early industrial revolution and the radical movement. What is less well known is that he left behind probably the most extensive, varied and readable collection of writings of any nineteenth-century radical. The diaries were written towards the end of his life (1858-61) and include letters and journalism, both by and about Bamford, closely linked to the diary material. There is frequent reference to and argument about the early nineteenth-century radical movement and the Peterloo massacre, and among Bamford's contacts and correspondents were the MPs Richard Cobden and James Kay-Shuttleworth, the pioneer dialect writers Edwin Waugh and Ben Brierley, and mid-Victorian political reformers. This edited edition of the diaries provides an intricate combination of diary, letterbook, and commonplace book, so that Bamford can be seen both in public and private, as he saw himself, as he wished to be seen, and as others saw him.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
