  In this book, Professor Rogers looks at the role and character of crowds in Georgian politics, and examines why the topsy-turvy interventions of the Jacobite era gave way to the more disciplined parades of Hanoverian England. In doing so, he shows that crowds were not merely dissonant voices on the margins but an integral part of eighteenth century politics.
