The history of the Reform Acts viewed from a Scottish angle, bringing out its implications for relations with England.

Modern edition of the autobiography of a significant figure in the Scottish Labour Party in the mid-twentieth century.

Pentland's study has 3 aims: to place the uprising in a wider context by exploring the modes of extra-parliamentary politics between 1815 and1820 as well as the situation outside Scotland; (ii) to provide the first full account of the rising itself; and (iii) to examine the legacies of both the politics of 1815-20 and the Radical War.
