Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1975, this volume aims to direct attention at a number of aspects of the lives and occupations of village labourers in the nineteenth-century that have been little examined by historians outside of agriculture. Some of the factors examined include the labourer’s gender, whether they lived in ‘closed’ or ‘open’ villages and what they worked at during the different seasons of the year. The author examines a range of occupations that have previously been ignored as too local to show up in national statistics or too short-lived to rank as occupations at all as well as sources of ‘secondary’ income. The analysis of all of these factors in related to the seasonal cycle of field labour and harvests. The central focus is on the cottage economy and the manifold contrivances by which labouring families attempted to keep themselves afloat.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from British Rural Life and Labour Outside my previous books - brief extracts from a small selection of the press opinions on which are given on a page preceding the title page of this work - I am unaware of any book in which even an endeavour has been made to present, in anything like concrete form, a subject that is of urgent national importance to all British peoples. Scattered through newspapers and magazines there have been, during the past half century, brief and fragmentary allusions to this subject; but I was the first, I think, in 1872, to put it into consecutive book form, and to endeavour to make a comprehensive picture.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beginning in the late Middle Ages, and accelerating in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, there developed in many rural regions of Europe a domestic industry, mass-producing craft goods for distant markets. This book presents an analysis of this 'industrialization before industrialization', and considers the question whether it constituted a distinct mode of production, different from the preceding feudal economy and from subsequent industrial capitalism, or was part of a process of continuous evolution characterized by the spread of wage labour and the penetration of capitalism into the process of production. It is a full-scale attempt to take a look at the place of proto-industrialization in the genesis of capitalism, and will interest economic and social historians, as well as anthropologists, sociologists, and others concerned with the development of capitalism.
