- This 200,000-word volume is of large originality, scale and scope, covering 250 years across four nations. The research, which Hall began in 1985, could not be completed until the AHRC funded intensive research by both co-authors 2013-2106 in 40+ workers’ libraries and regional archives from Belfast to Aberystwyth, Devon and Aberdeen. The range of primary data is exceptional: Stoke ceramics, Dundee manuscripts, Manchester Trade Union banners. Their collation/interpretation required acquiring new skills and consulting a vast transdisciplinary range of secondary scholarship. Collecting the 130 images integral to the arguments required painstaking sifting of databases and complex permission-related correspondence.
