Description
The new editions of Access to History combine all the strengths of this well-loved series with a new design and features that allow all students access to the content and study skills needed to achieve exam success. Reforming Britain 1815-50 provides a detailed account of the reform movements and acts throughout this period of British history. It examines the pressure for parliamentary reform leading up to the 1832 Reform Act and the significance of the Act before going on to look at other reforms during the period - such as the Factory Acts and the reform of the Corn Laws. It also includes a chapter on Chartism and the working-class challenge to reform. Throughout the book key dates, terms and issues are highlighted, and historical interpretations of key debates are outlined. Summary diagrams are included to consolidate knowledge and understanding of the period, and exam style questions and tips for each examination board provide the opportunity to develop exam skills.
