This volume examines the ideals and experiences of work during the
long nineteenth century. The meanings attached to work had
resonance in multiple aspects of people's lives, and the sources
consider this breadth. The primary sources examine the association
of work with respectability, the challenges industrialization posed
to men's traditional labour and identities, and the pressures
placed on working women by the increasingly normative domestic
ideal. Accompanied by extensive editorial commentary, this volume
will be of great interest to students of British History.
