About this title

Synopsis:

This wide-ranging and informative study remains revelatory in its examination of a variety of forms of working-class literature in the period. From street ballads to Chartist poetry, and from dialect literature and the culture of the music hall, Vicinus here sets down the roots of several key areas for scholarship on working-class writing for the next four decades.
