Publisher's Synopsis
Effingham William Wilson (28 September 1785 - 9 June 1868) was a 19th-century English radical publisher and bookseller. His main interests were in economics and politics, but he also published poetry. A strong advocate of freedom of the press, Wilson published material which other publishers found too politically dangerous, including works by Jeremy Bentham, whose utilitarian tendencies he shared. Other publications included works by William Godwin, Benjamin Disraeli and Robert Owen. (this pre-1923 publication has been converted from its original format and may contain an occasional defect from the conversion or from the original publication)
