Frederich Engels (1820 1895) was a German businessman and political
theorist renowned as one of the intellectual founders of communism.
In 1842 Engels was sent to Manchester to oversee his father's
textile business, and he lived in the city until 1844. This volume,
first published in German in 1845, contains his classic and highly
influential account of working-class life in Manchester at the
height of its industrial supremacy. Engels' highly detailed
descriptions of urban conditions and contrasts between the
different classes in Manchester were informed from both his own
observations and his contacts with local labour activists and
Chartists. Extensively researched and written with sympathy for the
working class, this volume is one Engels' best known works and
remains a vivid portrait of contemporary urban England. This volume
is reissued from the English edition of 1892, which was translated
by noted social activist Florence Kelley Wischnewetzky (1859 1932).
