This is a vivid  original and historically accurate comic book visual account of the 1819 Manchester massacre  to be published as part of the 200th anniversary commemorations. More than 15 people died and 600 were severely wounded by sabre-wielding troops at a peaceful pro-democracy rally. The entire narrative is drawn exclusively from the direct testimony of the time (letters  memoirs  journalists accounts  spies reports  courtroom evidence...) carefully woven together by rich  vivid  graphic-novel style illustrations created by professional cartoonist  illustrator and graphic novelist Polyp. This a vital record of working-class history by Manchester-based authors and artists who have been central in reviving the long-suppressed memory of this shocking and world-changing event.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67932211150901,"sku":"ByrdShop_1780264755","price":800.21,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781780264752.jpg?v=1794221349","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/peterloo-witnesses-to-a-massacre-9781780264752","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
