'Kathrin Levitan's A Cultural History of the British Census is a useful and engaging study about the meaning of the census in British society. In addition to shining new light on an old source and convincingly asserting its importance to British conceptions of themselves, it is also a well-crafted intellectual history that traces ideas about belonging identity in Britain through the transformations of nineteenth-century politics.'

'If for Lord Macaulay, "figures are like mercenaries: they may be enlisted on both sides", in Levitan the census has found a historian who is even-handed and wide-ranging in her survey of these battlefields.' - Robert Mayhew, TLS
"Provides an original approach, and the result will need to be engaged with by all historians working on modern Britain ... The book is well researched and clearly written, and scholars of literature as well as history will find important material here." - The American Historical Review
