The True Story of My Parliamentary Struggle

The True Story of My Parliamentary Struggle, published in 1882 by Charles Bradlaugh, recounts his conflict with the British Parliament over his right to affirm rather than take an oath due to his atheism. This autobiographical account highlights themes of religious beliefs, civic rights, and the parliamentary process during a pivotal time in British politics. Bradlaugh details the misunderstandings surrounding his situation and the legal foundations of his claim, including the Evidence Amendment Acts, as he navigates the complexities of his struggle in the House of Commons.
