About the WTSRS

The W.T. Stead Resource Site is designed and maintained by Teesside University graduate, Owen Mulpetre (BA, Mphil).

Launched in 2001, it is a free online resource intended to raise awareness of W.T. Stead and the important contributions which he made to the journalistic, political and social spheres of his age. It is also aimed at aiding in the research of his life and career and the issues in which he became embroiled. Since its inception, the WTSRS has been utilised by students, scholars and authors around the world. It is credited as a "treasure trove of contemporary documentation" in Richard Webster's book, The Secret of Bryn Estyn, the Making of a Modern Witch Hunt (2005), and it was extensively mined for BBC Radio Five's Saturday drama, The Maiden Tribute (Oct. 2005). It has most recently contributed to the Salvation Army's recent documentary Our People: The Story of William and Catherine Booth.
