      abstract = {This book serves as a retrieval and reevaluation of a rich  haul of comic caricatures from the turbulent years between  the Reform Bill crisis of the early 1830s and the rise and  fall of Chartism in the 1840s. With a telling selection of  illustrations, this book deploys the techniques of close  reading and political contextualization to demonstrate the  aesthetic and ideological clout of a neglected tranche of  satirical prints and periodicals dismissed as ineffectual  by historians or distasteful by contemporaries. The prime  exhibits are the work of Robert Seymour and C.J. Grant  giving acerbic comic edge to the case for reform against  class and state oppression and the excesses of the  monarchical regime under the young Queen Victoria.},
