Led by Arthur Thistlewood [1770-1820], the Cato Street Conspiracy was an attempt to murder all of the ministers and prime minister of King George IV in 1820. Motivated in part by the economic depression of the period, the conspirators wished to avenge the Six Acts and Paterloo Massacre. Their goal was to overthrow the government and initiate a revolution similar to the French Revolution. The plot was foiled and most of the accused were hanged. The others were sent to the penal colony in Australia. Wilkinson's account was reissued again in 1820 with the designation "second edition." Both editions are otherwise identical.
