Synopsis
Excerpt from A History of the Chartist Movement
This teeming mass of ideas, inspired with nascent energy, is the most striking characteristic of the Chartist movement. To the working men who listened to William Lovett and Fear gus o'connor, ideas mattered more than to any succeeding generation. Lovett's autobiography is a curious piece of evidence, showing its writer's obsession with ideas. More than one-half of that substantial book consists of manifestos and addresses drafted by its author. To Lovett the idea was as important as the deed, He and his generation really did believe in the prevailing power of truth.
