Urban Poverty in Britain 1830-1914 by James H. Treble Pdf

First published in 1979, Urban Poverty in Britain 1830-1914 examines the plight of the poor in towns as a direct result of industrialization. This valuable study examines the major causes of poverty – low pay, casual labour, unemployment, sickness, widowhood, large families, old age, drink and personal failings – and society’s response to the problem. It also pays attention to the changes in food consumption brought about by migration to the urban areas. Detailed accounts of specific problems and specific situations are combined with a look at the broader questions, and subsequently provides a thorough account of urban poverty in this period.

The Urban Working Class in Britain, 1830-1914 by Andrew August Pdf

In 1830, with the Industrial Revolution in full-swing, working-class life in Britain’s cities was in a state of flux. In all the major urban areas across Britain working-class men, women and children experienced both radical and conservative influences affecting every aspect of their lives. This four volume primary resource collection is the most comprehensive of its kind and includes a multitude of sources that allows the user to chart the squalor, the noise, the conflict, the aspiration and the diversity of the working-class experience up to the outbreak of the First World War.The thematically arranged volumes are dedicated to key aspects of working class life such as family and neighbourhood, the workplace, leisure and politics. In all cases the selections made are sensitive to showing the experience of the whole of the working class rather than just that of the working-class male. The voices chosen include both critical observers from outside as well as the working class themselves.All of the documents selected are rare in print form and come from a wide variety of sources including periodicals, articles in magazines, pamphlets and excerpts from books. The collection will be of value to scholars of social and political history, economics, Victorian studies and urban history.

Poverty and Welfare 1830-1914 by Peter Murray Pdf

This volume examines a number of themes central to 19th-century social and political history in Britain. Looking in detail at the 1834 reform of the Poor Law, the author also considers the context in which the Poor Law was framed and the social values of those who supported and opposed it. The changing attitudes to poverty are considered with a review of the question, were the poor better treated in 1914 than they had been in 1830?. The book also looks at the complex historiography of the subject.

Housing in Urban Britain 1780-1914 by Richard Rodger Pdf

Why did slums and suburbs develop simultaneously? Did the capitalist system produce these, and were class antagonisms to blame? Why did the Victorians believe there was a housing problem, and who or what created it? What housing solutions were attempted, and how successfully? These are amongst the central questions addressed by social and urban historians in recent years, and their arguments and analyses are reviewed here. The history of housing between 1780 and 1914 encapsulates many problems associated with the transition from a largely rural to an overwhelmingly urban nation. The unprecedented pace of this transition imposed immense tensions within society, with implications for the urban environment and for local and national government. Housing is central to an understanding of the social, economic, political and cultural forces in nineteenth-century history; this book is an ideal introduction to the topic.
