  Book Description
 
Publication Date: July 26, 2010
  This is a unique account of working-class
childhood during the British industrial revolution. Using more than 600 autobiographies written by working men of the
eighteenth and nineteenth centuries Jane Humphries illuminates working-class childhood in contexts untouched by
conventional sources and facilitates estimates of age at starting work, social mobility, the extent of apprenticeship,
and the duration of schooling. The classic era of industrialization, 1790-1850, apparently saw an upsurge in child
labour. While the memoirs implicate mechanization and the division of labour in this increase, they also show that
fatherlessness and large sibsets, common in these turbulent, high-mortality, and high-fertility times, often cast
children as partners and supports for mothers struggling to hold families together. The book offers unprecedented
insights into child labour, family life, careers, and schooling. Its images of suffering, stoicism, and occasional
childish pleasures put the humanity back into economic history and the trauma back into the industrial revolution.

 
  Reviews
  "Recommended." -Choice
  
  "This is a large and important book ... It deserves to become not
only a classic study of childhood, but also of the Industrial Revolution in Britain. As Humphries herself notes, it has
been a long time coming, but for the reader it has been well worth the wait." -History
Today
  
  "Childhood and Child Labour in the British Industrial Revolution is richly innovative in
its marrying of economic data with life stories. The voices of the children - stoical, matter of fact, and moving in
their ordinariness - jump off the page. There is no other historical study of British labour during the industrial
revolution that so vividly brings to life the world of the working-class child."-History
