In the golden age of newspapers and print media, working-class poets spoke about their experiences of the Cotton Famine and expressed their political opinions. Ruth-Anne talks to Dr Alison Chapman from the University of Victoria and Dr Andrew Hobbs from UCLAN about Victorian periodicals and provincial presses in nineteenth-century England. 

 


Written and presented by Ruth-Anne Walbank
