description: Mark Hovell's account of The Chartist Movement, originally published in 1918 and revised on several occasions, remains the classic narrative account of the rise and ultimate failure of this mass 19th century artisan and labour movement. Chartism's primary objective of setting the agenda for political reform and subsequent social regeneration dominated the domestic political stage for over a decade, and Hovell's account is still a sound starting point for any serious understanding of the subject.
