Biography
Matthew McCormack is Professor of History at the University of Northampton. He has published widely on masculinity, politics and war. His previous books include The Independent Man: Citizenship and Gender Politics in Georgian England (2005) and Embodying the Militia in Georgian England (2015).
Citizenship and Gender’s new gendered narrative of political culture will be highly attractive not just to students and the academic community, but to a broader audience interested in the history of British politics, parliament and the people.
