Time and Work in England 1750-1830

English · Hardback

Description

Did working hours in England increase as a result of the Industrial Revolution? Marx said so, and so did E.P. Thompson; but where is the evidence to support this belief? The author uses the court testimony of over 2800 witnesses to reconstruct labour and leisure patterns.
