Using Hamilton's local history to tell the wider story of the North
American working-class, Lunch-Bucket Lives investigates how workers
dealt with the profound changes in their lives between the 1890s
and the 1930s, as wage-earners, family members, and participants in
various social networks. Heron takes wage-earning as a central
element in working-class life, but also looks beyond the workplace
into the households and neighbourhoods?settlement patterns and
housing, marriage, child care, domestic labour, public health,
schooling, charity and social work, popular culture, gender
identities, ethnicity and ethnic conflict, and politics in various
forms?presenting a comprehensive view of working-class life in the
first half of the twentieth century. This book has been published
with the help of a grant from the Federation for the Humanities and
Social Sciences, through the Awards to Scholarly Publications
Program, using funds provided by the Social Sciences and Humanities
Research Council of Canada.
