- This monograph presents results from an in-depth study of one city, Liverpool, its complex relationship with alcohol, and the geographical imaginations of reformers and regulators who worked to combat its negative reputation. The monograph’s arguments are built upon an extended period of detailed archival research in local and national collections, with a diverse source base of police statistics, parliamentary papers and municipal minutes, reformers’ maps and temperance tracts, and a range of newspapers. Their different perspectives are used to frame the experience and example of Liverpool as an exemplar of the geographical foundations of nineteenth-century liberal government.
