Excerpt from A Village Politician, the Life-Story of John Buckley The following pages are an interesting record of one whom I have known for many years as a practical and active worker in all social and educational effort. Some parts may read like a romance. The changes made in names and places are intended to prevent a too personal identification.

The anti-corn Law agitation, and the contested elections arising out of it. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
