The book is based on extensive research, including interviews with people who knew Livesey and archival materials such as letters and diaries. Overall, Joseph Livesey: The Story Of His Life, 1794-1884 provides a comprehensive look at the life and legacy of one of the most important figures in the British temperance movement.
