Reviews

It gives an incisive sense of the extraordinarily diverse range of texts, activities, repressive legislation and intellectual engagement that the LCS generated.' Journal of Historical Geography 'immensely useful' London Review of Books 'offers un-annotated photo-reproductions of London Corresponding Society works accompanied by useful but short introductions.'
