Riotous Whitehaven: Whitehaven's Riots 1749-2017 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781073337903)

Since 1749 twenty riots have taken place in Whitehaven Cumbria. They were reported in the newspapers of the day and this book contains accounts of what caused the disturbances, what happened during them, and what the consequences were for those who took part in them. The events described bring light to what in some cases were extraordinary events in local history. In doing so they are quite revealing of the way minds worked in the community back then.
