Beskrivelse
The Swing Riots were the most dramatic and widespread rising of the English rural poor. Protestors destroyed machines, demanding higher wages and better poor relief. Swing represented a genuine challenge to the existing ruling order, provoking a bitter and bloody repression. This is a vivid account of a defining moment in British history. -- .
