Cornwall Politics in the Age of Reform, 1790-1885

Author: Ed Jaggard
Publisher: Boydell & Brewer Ltd
ISBN: 9780861932436
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 260

Book Description
Examination of major changes in political behaviour in 19c Cornwall, withwider implications for the country as a whole. This detailed case-study offers a penetrating analysis of the changing political culture in Cornwall up to and after the introduction of the 1832 electoral system. It spans a century in which the county's parliamentary over-representation and notorious political corruption was replaced by a politicised electorate for whom issues and principles were usually paramount. Several models of electoral behaviour are tested; in particular, the continuous politicalactivism of Cornwall's farmers stands out. Despite remnants of the unreformed electoral system lingering into the mid-Victorian era, Cornwall developed a powerful Liberal tradition, built upon distinctive patterns of non-conformity; the Conservatives, split by dissension, saw their pre-reform ascendancy disappear. Professor EDWIN JAGGARD lectures in history at Edith Cowan University, Perth, Western Australia.

Book Description
Jon is in a dark place having lost the love of his life and his long term job. The promised contractual arrangement with Chief Forensic Investigator Gamble has come to nothing and he hasn’t even heard from him since signing. Then that mysterious voice in his head returns and directs him to where a desperately frail and naked Tracey lays in the middle of a forest, close to death. This meeting sparks a reconnection with not only Tracey but Gamble as well. Soon he learns about other members of his Lower Middle Group, each with their own special skills, but their presence is felt by his enemies too (the Higher Middle) who are determined to upset the fragile balance of life. The net starts to close in around Jon. The Higher Middle is well organized, motivated, ambitious and much stronger as they plot the downfall of Jon’s Lower Middle Group. Not everyone will survive the upcoming confrontation, one that will determine which Group has world dominance. The question is whether the balance has shifted too much in one direction, a shift that will impact every human being on earth! This is Part 2 of Jon Cornwall’s trilogy. Stay tuned for the final encounter.
