Book

Poll Tax Rebellion

Published on 31 March 1992

The gripping inside story of the biggest mass movement in British history, which at its peak involved over 17 million people. Using a combination of photos, text and graphics, and drawing on the voices of activists and non-payers it describes the everyday organisation of local anti-poll tax groups, and chronicles the demonstrations and riots leading up to the battle of Trafalgar – showing how the courts were blocked, bailiffs resisted and the Poll Tax destroyed.
