Description

Explore the complex relationship between class and the British army during the nineteenth-century industrialization period. This volume from the Studies in Labour History series challenges traditional military histories that view the ranks as merely ruffians led by gentlemen. Instead, it provides a detailed look at how service included a broad cross section of respectable working class men. By examining soldiers as an unstudied occupational group, the text reveals how these men functioned as artisans, servants, and dealers. The book demonstrates how pre-enlistment working class attitudes and low level class conflict shaped military life. This work offers a new perspective on employment, class, and conflict within the nineteenth-century military structure.
