First published in 1979, this book was the first, full-length study
of working-class movements in London between 1800 and the
beginnings of Chartism in the later 1830s. The leaders and rank and
file in these movements were almost invariably artisans, and this
book examines the position of the skilled artisan in politics.
Starting from the social ideals, outlook and the experience of the
London artisan, Dr Prothero describes trade union, political,
co-operative, educational and intellectual movements in the first
forty years of the century. Setting a scene of alternating growth
and contraction in trade, successive hostile governments and the
increasing articulation of working-class consciousness the author
shows that artisans could be no less militant, radical or
anti-capitalist than other groups of working class men.
