«En opinión de Chesterton —escribió uno de los críticos del último libro—, Cobbett apoyaba a Inglaterra: una Inglaterra no industrializada, autosuficiente, que basa su prosperidad en la agricultura y en el comercio menor, sin deseos de inflación.»[320] Chesterton consideraba a Cobbett el defensor de la población rural desposeída, el último radical rural: «Después de él, el radicalismo es urbano y el conservadurismo, suburbano».[321] También comparó a Cobbett con Shelley: «Caminando por la verde Warwickshire, Cobbett podría haber pensado en el grano y Shelley en las nubes.
