Set in London at the time of the Gordon Riots, Barnaby Rudge interweaves a murder mystery with the story of Lord George Gordon's dangerous appeal to old religious prejudices. The brilliant descriptions of the destruction of Newgate prison by the rioters contain some of Dickens's most vivid writing. This edition uses the forthcoming Clarendon text and includes all the original illustrations, plus illuminating introduction and notes.
