This book provides the fullest account to date of the 100 or so working-class republican clubs that were established in Britain between 1871 and 1874. Too often the historiographical treatment of these clubs has been generic (`More than 50 republican clubs were formed in large towns and cities ´). Instead, by a detailed investigation of primary sources, this study identifies the individual clubs and traces when and where they were formed. It also provides a multi-dimensional profile of the club movement and explains the reasons for its failure. All this is interwoven with the contemporary political scene, involving such key players as Dilke and Gladstone, but equally important for this purpose, Bradlaugh and Odger. What emerges is a fascinating account of a unique period in modern British history – the only time that the monarchy has been subject to any noteworthy challenge from republicanism. As such, it provides an interesting historical background to current debates about the future of the Crown.
