A very good copy indeed in a late 19th century 1/4 black morocco binding by Charles Winstanley of Manchester, dark blue cloth boards, marbled endpapers, text clean tight and seemingly unread. Scarce. Ebenezer Elliott (17 March 1781 – 1 December 1849) was an English poet, known as the Corn Law rhymer for his leading the fight to repeal the Corn Laws which were causing hardship and starvation among the poor. Though a factory owner himself, his single-minded devotion to the welfare of the labouring classes won him a sympathetic reputation long after his poetry ceased to be read.
