Publisher Description:

The acclaimed major interpretation of 19th century society and politics concerning the human impact of the industrial revolution.

Offers a subtle and responsive understanding of the formation of class consciousness, and a recognition that deference and stability as well as independence in class relations grew out of working-class culture and community, and thus out of the centre of people's lives.
