1839 by David Black
A history of the Chartist insurrection of 1839, based on original sources, and especially the Chartist and radical press of the time. With its meticulous attention to detailed sources, its comprehensive scope and its exacting research, this book doesn't just address the neglect of this important episode in Labour movement history-more importantly it challenges us to think again about the revolutionary potential of the British Labour movement. John McDonnell MP, Foreword Appendices include Julian Harney's 'The Tremendous Uprising' and Edward Aveling's memoir, 'George Julian Harney: A Straggler of 1848'.
Black, David: - David Black is a former Fleet Street journalist and television documentary producer. He spent much of his childhood a short walk from the Royal Navy Submarine Memorial at Lazaretto Point on the Firth of Clyde, and he grew up watching the passage of both US and Royal Navy submarines in and out of the Firth's bases at Holy Loch and Faslane. As a boy, the lives of those underwater warriors captured his imagination. When he grew up, he discovered the truth was even more epic, and so followed the inspiration for his fictional submariner Harry Gilmour and a series of novels about his adventures across World War Two. David Black is also the author of a non-fiction book, Triad Takeover: A Terrifying Account of the Spread of Triad Crime in the West. He lives in Argyll.
