This book, the first full-length study of metropolitan Chartism,
provides extensive new material for the 1840s and establishes the
regional and national importance of the London movement throughout
this decade. After an opening section which considers the economic
and social structure of early-Victorian London, and provides an
occupational breakdown of Chartists, Dr Goodway turns to the three
main components of the metropolitan movement: its organized form;
the crowd; and the trades. The development of London Chartism is
correlated to economic fluctuations, and, after the nationally
significant failure of London to respond in 1838-9, 1842 is seen as
a peak in terms of conventional organization, and 1848 as the high
point of turbulence and revolutionary potential. The section
concludes with an exposition of the insurrectionary plans of 1848.
