A minor point, in the last sentence of the fourth paragraph, I think "The Quacker Bright..." is meant to be "The Quaker Bright...".

Thank you for catching that. Unfortunately, I don't have funding to pay for a copy-editor so I rely on the generosity of my readers.

I've always seen Bright viewed very positively (more so than Cobden, I think). There's a character in Trollope's Palliser novels obviously based on Bright. Presented somewhat critically, as you'd expect from Trollope, but in a way that definitely made him appear as a radical democrat.
