First published in 1988. This collection of essays examines aspects
of labour and industrial relations history in the textiles sector
of Northern England during the mature phase of industrialisation
before World War One and the period of retrenchment during the
interwar economic recession. There are chapters on wool, worsted,
silk, cotton spinning and weaving, and cotton finishing. The volume
includes contributions by historians interested in employers'
organisations and management strategies, labour, trade union and
women's history. As such it provides a broader framework in which
relationships between capital and labour are analysed. The book
also incorporates some of the recent research on particularly
neglected areas of social history, most notably on women workers
and on the industrial relations policies of employers in textiles.
