In the years 1849 and 1850, Henry Mayhew was the metropolitan
correspondent of the Morning Chronicle in its national survey of
labour and the poor. Only about a third of his Morning Chronicle
material was included in his later and better known, publication,
London Labour and the London Poor. First published in 1981, this
series of six volumes constitutes Henry Mayhew's complete Morning
Chronicle survey, in the sequence in which it was originally
written in 1849 and 1850. It addresses a wealth of topics from
cholera in the Jacob's Island area to the food markets of London.
The publication of this complete survey represented the first time
in which the whole of Mayhew's pioneering work was available in one
place. The set is introduced by Dr Peter Razzell, who was co-editor
of the national Morning Chronicle survey. This second volume
contains letters from November 1849 to January 1850. This series
will be of interest to those studying the history of social
welfare, poverty and urbanisation.
