First published in 1969, this book presents a one-volume anthology
of Charles Booth's Life and Labour of the People in London, the
classic early study of the poor in the urban environment. The
original text consists of a vast compendium of descriptions of
families, homes, streets, conditions of work, cultural and
religious practices, much of it illustrated with charts, maps and
statistics - giving the public an idea of the dimensions and
meaning of poverty. The editors have selected the extracts in this
book for their vividness, readability and intrinsic interest, and
their introduction conveys the context of 1880s London - relating
Booth's investigations to contemporary concerns.
