Description

Explore the significant impact of women workers in the early industrial era with this Routledge publication. Britain and America led the way in mechanized cotton manufacturing and established the first major factory systems, making them the first major employers of women outside of domestic settings. As new wage earners in a trans-national industry, these women played a vital role in shaping economic history. This book, part of the Studies in Labour History series, examines how female employees influenced industrial organization patterns between 1780 and 1860. By analyzing their public prominence as workers, the text offers a new perspective on the role of women in the workforce. It traces how these early workers set the standards for waged labor that would be used to evaluate future generations of female employees.
