An impressively thorough exploration of the changing functions,
character and experience of English towns in a key age of
transition which includes smaller communities as well as the larger
industrialising towns. Among the issues examined are demography,
social stratification, manners, religion, gender, dissent,
amenities and entertainment, and the resilience of provincial
culture in the face of the growing influence of London. At its
heart is an authoritative study of urban politics: the structures
of authority, the realities of civic administration, and the
general movement for reform that climaxed in the Municipal
Corporations Act of 1835.
