Synopsis
This riveting text unveils the shocking truth behind the "sweating system" that prevailed in the tailoring trade during the late 19th century. The author exposes the appalling working conditions endured by journeymen tailors who were forced to toil in their cramped and unsanitary homes to make ends meet. This practice not only impoverished the workers but also posed grave health risks, as infectious diseases like smallpox and scarlet fever ran rampant in these overcrowded and unsanitary sweatshops. The book presents a haunting account of the human toll exacted by this exploitative system and reveals the devastating consequences it had on the well-being of both the tailors and the public.
