I'm looking for good books representing England's opinion on the French Revolution. Any suggestions?

I have so far found a collection of texts (including English) from the 1790s, and Burke's Reflections on the French Revolution. I'm looking specifically for a more modern (scholarly) source for a term paper, but any suggestions are great. Thanks!

Maybe try...

H.T. Dickinson ed., Britain and the French Revolution 1789-1815 (1989)

Mark Philp ed. The French Revolution and British Popular Politics (1991)

Clive Emsley, British Society and the French Wars 1793-1815 (1979)

Linda Colley, ‘The Apotheosis of George III: Loyalty, Royalty and the British Nation 1760-1820’, Past and Present

Katrina Navickas, Loyalism and Radicalism in Lancashire 1798-1815 (2009)

Alan Forrest, K. Hagemann and J. Rendall (eds), Soldiers, Citizens and Civilians: experiences and perceptions of the Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars, 1790-1820, (2009)

I haven't read any of them personally, but they're on the Oxford reading list for History of the British Isles V, which I have hanging around, so I'll bet they're pretty solid.
