Summary: | This volume represents the contexts, aspirations and dramas experienced by the people who worked in industry in Britain for 200 years. This fictional material was usually produced in conscious resistance to the dominent culture of the day, sometimes by middle-class sympathisers, but often by workers themselves who found time, somehow, to write about their stark experiences. |
