Author Visit - Brent Shore at Hyde Town Hall and Ashton Library 11 April
 Blessèd are the meek: Meet Author Brent Shaw
Hyde Town Hall: Rutherford Suite 1.30 – 3pm
Ashton Library 6 – 7.30pm
Author Brent Shore is originally from Hyde but is now living in Dorset. He has recently written a historical novel that charts the life of a machine mender working in the cotton mills of Hyde in the nineteenth century and his role in the Plug Riots of 1842 and 1848. A time when sabotaging the factory boilers was part of the workers' means of protest against not only their low pay and working conditions, but also against the continued opposition of parliament to the demands of the Chartists.
The book is called Blessed are the Meek and the main character James Shore, was a real person who was imprisoned along with 18 other men imprisoned for their part in the riots. Much of Brent’s research has been done with Tameside Local Studies and Archives so we are really pleased to welcome him to his home town/s for his talk.
The events are free, but booking is required please visit tamesidelibraries.eventbrite.co.uk or call 0161 342 2031.
