Review :
Reviews'Important and fresh, this book presents new material on the pre-history of the Labour party, bridging a gap between the years of the Reform League in the 1860s and the so-called revival of socialism in the 1880s.' Miles Taylor 'This is a well researched and important study, it deserves to be widely read.' Chartist, No 268 '...a splendid piece of meticulous historical scholarship casting new light on a pivotal and often neglected period of British political and working-class history.' American Historical Review '[By consulting widely and deeply unpublished manuscripts] Owen gives properly wait to [engaging] analysis of the connections between the linguistic, and the political and cultural environments.' William C. Lubenow, Journal of Liberal History 'The research is meticulous, delving into the intricate workings of organizations and personal connections among labor and Liberal leaders. Throughout the book, realities at the grass-roots prevail. Owen successfully captures the fluidity of popular politics and the assertiveness that often underscored labor's cooperation with the Liberal party.' James Epstein, Victorian Studies, Vol. 58, No. 3 Reviews'Owen makes a significant contribution to the study of the relationship between the Liberal Party and the working class following the electoral reform of 1867.' Detlev Mares, H-Soz-Kult
