This is the first biography of the influential radical journalist William Duane to study his American career in light of his formative years in Ireland, England and India. Duane is most famous as the editor of The Aurora, the Philadelphia-based paper which vigorously supported Thomas Jefferson in his 1800 presidential election campaign. Based on extensive archival research, this fascinating monograph explores how early membership of the London Corresponding Society and a ruinous dispute with the East India Company Army helped shape Duane's later Federalist convictions.
"‘Little’s biography is a superb radical history and highlights a man who played a leading role in the struggle for liberty in three continents.’"
