Description

David J. V. Jones was Professor of History at the University College of Swansea. His other books include Rebecca’s Children, Crime in Nineteenth-Century Wales and Crime and Policing in the Twentieth Century: the South Wales Experience.
“David Jones’s splendid monograph which, at the risk of using a cliché, must be described as definitive.” –Times Higher Education Supplement
“Brings to bear on the subject all the art and diligence of modern scholarship . . . a persuasive, original work.” –The Observer
“Much of the value of the book lies in its brilliant analysis of the socio-economic structure of the coalfield, and of its distinctive political tradition . . . This splendid, humane book makes us reflect anew, both on Chartism more generally and on Welsh radicalism in particular.” –Times Literary Supplement
