Conspiracy on Cato Street : a tale of liberty and revolution in Regency London
Gatrell, Vic, 1941-2022
Books, Manuscripts
The Cato Street Conspiracy was the most sensational of all plots aimed at the British state since the Gunpowder Plot of 1605. This book tells this dramatic but neglected story with cinematic vividness, episodic range, and a tragic denouement that undermines our romantic fantasies about Regency England.
