Item Description

The writer feels that John Davidson's pamphlet on Reform and the workers, ' A Letter to the working classes of Aberdeen', is more concerned with Davidson's own self-interest, rather than with the interests of the workers of Aberdeen. In his pamphlet, Davidson continually refers to his own part in bringing about reform. As the writer of this review states, 'there is nothing in the whole paper but self, self, self!'
