Description

Explore a definitive historical study of the 1839 South Wales uprising. First published in 1984, this Routledge Library Edition provides a full investigation into the planned rebellion of miners and ironworkers and its eventual collapse during the confrontation with the 45th regiment of Newport. This book goes beyond the events of the rising itself to analyze the underlying causes. It looks at the immediate pressures of the workplace alongside the long-term history of Welsh repression. By examining these social and political factors, the text explains why such an armed struggle became a likely outcome for the workers of that era. This title is a valuable resource for anyone studying Victorian politics or social history. It offers a deep look at class struggle and the specific circumstances that shaped the lives of industrial workers in the 19th century. Whether for academic research or personal interest in social sciences, this work provides a detailed account of a significant moment in Welsh history.
