Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is a political text from 1838 written by Richard Cobden. The main subject of the book is the necessity for municipal reform within Manchester. Cobden argues that the current method of appointing the boroughreeve (the highest municipal official) and other officers through the Lord of the Manor is outdated and ineffective. He advocates for the incorporation of Manchester, which would give the town control over its own government and police force. The book provides a detailed analysis of the flaws in the existing system and makes a compelling case for change. Cobden's ideas were ultimately successful, and Manchester was incorporated in 1846. This book is a valuable historical document that sheds light on the development of local government in England.
