This book, first published in 1967, examines the implications of a
now-forgotten minor riot that occurred in 1833, a turbulent year
with the working classes striving for recognition in a changing
social order. A political meeting in London had been declared
illegal, the police breaking up the crowd were met with resistance,
and in the fracas a policeman was stabbed to death. A bad-tempered
inquest followed, at which the jury returned a verdict of justified
killing - for which a section of the public hailed them as heroes.
This analysis sets the crime and verdict against the political
protests of the time.
