Recenzje

it is the most careful, scholarly, and disinterested look to date at what William Cobbett famously and unforgettably called 'Old Corruption'./ ... Harling's is the first systematic study of its extent and, more especially, its demise. IThe Waning of 'Old Corruption'I is best read, I think, as a study in the making of the famously frugal, relatively pure, mid-Victorian state./
