Cobden Project

The Letters of Richard Cobden

The aim of the Cobden Letters project is to produce a complete published set of the letters of this prominent British radical, who became a statesman of national and international standing through his leadership of the Anti-Corn Law League and his pursuit of a vision of international peace based on freedom of trade between sovereign nations. Between 2002 and 2006 the project was funded by two grants from the Arts & Humanities Research Council.

 

The first volume, The Letters of Richard Cobden 1815-1847, was published by Oxford University Press in November 2007. It will be followed by three further printed volumes. Complete online publication is also planned. For volume I please see:
