“This monograph is engagingly written, with a good eye for narrative detail, which should make this study accessible to a pretty wide audience. … This is a well-written and interesting book, which will prove useful to students of nineteenth-century proto-socialism and utopian radicalism.” (Ambrogio A. Caiani, History - Journal of the Historical Association, December, 2015)
