  • This website is dedicated to reviving interest in Edward Rushton (1756-1814), the great, blind human rights campaigner, poet and writer.

    Widely known and respected during his later years, Rushton fell into obscurity as other reputations, notably that of William Roscoe, were pushed to the fore. The history of the anti-slavery movement was written largely ignoring Rushton’s contribution. We hope this website helps to redress that wrong.
