Description
More than 15 people died and 600 were severely wounded by sabre-wielding troops at a peaceful pro-democracy rally at St Peter’s Field in 1819. This is a visual account of ‘Peterloo’, published as part of the 200th anniversary commemorations. The narrative is drawn from the direct testimony of the time, including letters, memoirs, journalists accounts, spies' reports and courtroom evidence, and is conveyed in rich, vivid illustrations by professional cartoonist, illustrator and graphic novelist Polyp.
