Charles Dickens: The apostle of the people

By Edwin Pugh

Dickens is acknowledged to have been an active advocate of reform in Victorian England. The author of this critical biography goes a step further & analyzes Dickens'works in terms of the causes he espoused. The author asserts that Dickens was a Socialist without knowing it, & that in almost all of his writings Dickens was working for Socialism, although the term itself did not come into common use until some years after his death.
