Used paperback book - as new. Imagining Robert. The story of Robert Stanley a respectable northern working class Victorian man who converted to Islam. But his family managed to keep his Muslim identity secret for nearly a century. Robert grew up in the cradle of the Industrial Revolution and was part of Ashton under Lyne's Christian Israelite sect. Self-educated, this grocer and tea trader made it his mission to help working men bribed by rich factory owners during elections. He rose to become one of Britain's first working class magistrates and mayors, witnessing first hand some of the most violent riots, radicalism and progressive reforms of the Victorian era. Written in 15 scenes blending fact and fiction. Signed by the author.
