註釋

William Cobbett was possibly the greatest English journalist of his times and in this book Cobbett's writing and its influence on public opinion and high government is closely examined. Among the topics considered are Cobbett's writings on all the great crises of his age - his views on education, Ireland and the state of the English countryside, his relations with Sir Frances Burdett and other magnates, his own anti-Semitism, and, crucially, his reactionary Utopian vision. Anyone wishing to understand the condition of England and the way in which it responded to crises at home and overseas may find this book useful.
