Description

This comprehensive historical study, first published in 1984, examines the meticulously organised uprising of south Wales miners and ironworkers in 1839 and its dramatic collapse during confrontation with the 45th regiment at Newport. The book goes beyond documenting the rising itself to analyse the underlying factors that made the insurrection likely given the harsh conditions faced by workers. It traces how the workers' movement, whilst an immediate reaction to grim workplace circumstances, was also deeply rooted in centuries of Welsh experience with repression and social struggle. The work connects immediate labour grievances to broader patterns of resistance woven throughout Welsh history. This Routledge Library Editions title proves essential for scholars and students studying Victorian politics, labour history, and the development of class consciousness in industrial Britain during the nineteenth century.

Key Features
