G.D.H. Cole, The Life of William Cobbett, 3rd ed. (1947), still the best biography, but should be read with John W. Osborne, William Cobbett: His Thought and His Times (1966), a reassessment of Cobbett’s career in topical form; M. Pearl, William Cobbett (1953), an attempt at a complete bibliography.
