Description

First published in 1979, this Routledge Library Edition examines the hardships faced by the poor in British towns during the industrialization era. The study explores the direct impact of industrial growth on urban populations and investigates the primary drivers of poverty, including low pay, unemployment, sickness, and widowhood. This historical text also analyzes how society responded to these social challenges and looks at the changes in food consumption patterns caused by migration to urban centers. By combining detailed accounts of specific local situations with broader historical questions, this book provides a comprehensive look at the social conditions of the period. It serves as a valuable resource for those studying urban history, sociology, and the social sciences.
