The pamphleteering of the Regency period has been particularly well
documented. For starters, see
Hackwood (F W ) William Hone, his life and times (London 1912)
McCalman (Iain) Radical Underworld: Prophets, Revolutionaries and
Pornographers in London, 1795-1840 (Cambridge 1988)
Rickword (Edgell) ed. Radical Squibs and Loyal Ripostes: Satirical
Pamphlets of the Regency Period 1819-1821 (Bath 1971)
Wardroper (John) Kings, Lords and Wicked Libellers: Satire & Protest
1760-1837 (London 1973)
I hope that this helps.
