Description

The Emergence of Football by Routledge reframes nineteenth-century football history within the broader context of economic, social and cultural change during the Industrial Revolution. This Routledge Research in Sports History title challenges conventional narratives by examining working-class footballing culture throughout the century, presenting original empirical evidence that reveals how industrial structures shaped the development of the people's game. Rather than focusing solely on mass games and public schools, the book offers a revisionist critique that integrates sports history into mainstream historical discourse, providing readers with fresh insights into how football emerged as a cultural force alongside industrial transformation.

Key Features

The Emergence of Football integrates sports history with economic and social history, examining how industrialisation influenced football's development in nineteenth-century Britain.

This Routledge Research title challenges conventional football historiography by presenting original empirical evidence and revisionist perspectives on the sport's origins.

The book explores working-class footballing culture across the entire nineteenth century, revealing continuity and structural connections to industrial society.

Suitable for students and scholars in sports history, anthropology and sociology seeking comprehensive analysis of football's cultural emergence during the Industrial Era.
