People's Champion: The Life Of Alexander Bowman, Pioneer of Labour Politics In Ireland

When Alexander Bowman was elected in Belfast Corporation as Labour member in Duncairn in 1897, the very idea that he would still be remembered a century later for his relentless championing of the working class cause appeared unthinkable.

THE STORY OF DARTMOOR PRISON by Basil Thomson

A lot of people know Dartmoor Prison through Arthur Conan Doyle’s book The Hound of the Baskervilles, which builds a very bleak picture on this establishment.
