Description
Long regarded, along with their 'The Village Labourer', as a classic of English social history literature, being a detailed account of the condition of the urban working class during the Industrial Revolution, spanning the years 1760 to 1832 and based firmly on contemporary sources -- typical, too, of the high standards set by J.L. and Barbara Hammond. The book is sub-titled 'the new civilisation'.
