Description

Explore the complex social and economic dynamics of eighteenth-century maritime life with this academic study from Routledge. Focusing on the busy commercial ports of Bristol, England, and Nantes, France, this book examines how economic shifts influenced urban social structures during the last third of the century. As these ports maintained active maritime trade despite economic slowdowns, they became magnets for migrants from both the countryside and abroad. The book investigates how the rise of Atlantic industries and the decline of female-led house-based proto-industries contributed to changing social realities. By analyzing the high density of sailors and single men in these urban environments, the text provides a detailed look at the factors that encouraged the development of prostitution. This work is a valuable resource for students and researchers interested in economic and social history. It offers a clear perspective on how migration, industry, and urban growth shaped the social fabric of major European ports during a transformative era.
