UPROAR!: Satire, Scandal and Printmakers in Georgian London, Loxton's acclaimed debut, follows Thomas Rowlandson, James Gillray, and Isaac Cruikshank as they turn caricature into a political weapon in 1772 London. Eleanor: A 200-Mile Walk in Search of England's Lost Queen sees Loxton retrace the funeral procession of Eleanor of Castile, walking the route between Lincoln and London to uncover a forgotten medieval queen's legacy.
