Alton Locke, Tailor and Poet: An Autobiography by Charles Kingsley
"Alton Locke, Tailor and Poet: An Autobiography" by Charles Kingsley is a novel published in 1850. Written in sympathy with the Chartist movement, it follows a young tailor-boy with poetic ambitions beyond his working-class station. The novel exposes social injustices faced by clothing workers and agricultural laborers while chronicling Alton's passionate involvement in working-class reform. Through intense patriotism, vain struggles for love, and righteous indignation, he fights for change—but at what cost
to his fragile spirit? (This is an automatically generated summary.)
