Reseña del libro "The Scottish Radical War of 1820 and the State That Crushed It (en Inglés)"

On a summer morning in 1820, twenty thousand people crowd Glasgow Green to watch an old stocking-maker hanged and then beheaded for high treason. When the executioner raises the severed head and names it the head of a traitor, the crowd answers with a single word: Murder!How did a gentle inventor, acquitted on three of four charges and recommended to mercy by his own jury, come to die this way? The answer lies in the Radical War, Scotland's forgotten rising of April 1820, when sixty thousand workers laid down their tools at the call of an anonymous placard and small bands of weavers marched through the night toward armies that did not exist.Moving from the Covenanter graves of Lanarkshire to the loomshops of Paisley, from the sabres of Peterloo to the cavalry charge at Bonnymuir and the massacre on a Greenock street, this gripping narrative reconstructs three decades of hunger, hope, and defiance. It exposes the government spies who lured radicals into the open, the English treason law used to condemn them, and the tartan pageantry designed to bury their memory.This is the story of ordinary men who demanded a voice in their own government, and of a state that answered them with the axe.
