'Finished Bamford's "Passages from the life of a Radical". Have just begun again Mill's "Political Economy", and Comte's "Social Science" in Miss Martineau's edition'.
Elizabeth Barrett to Mary Russell Mitford, 26 May 1845: 'I know Bamford's "Life of a Radical," which contains some of his verses -- but there seemed to me to be more poetry in the prose. It is a vividly interesting autobiography which I shd. have mentioned to you long ago.'
