Description

Second in the 19th-century set of "History at Source" titles, this book contains written and visual sources, making it a practical "handbook" for sixth-form students of Chartism and working-class movements in the 19th century. This book, through the use of contemporary documentation, aims to familiarize students with the subject of Chartism, and to help develop an effective examination technique. In addition to a basic analysis of the Chartist movement, the role of women and the rank and file are considered, along with chapters on the economic background and the historical debate surrounding the movement. Practical advice, essay plans, specimen answers and a short contextual introduction to each chapter are also included.
