This study of the experiences of lower middle-class women in northern towns during the industrial revolution challenges widely held views on women's social and economic roles in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. Hannah Barker balances rigorous quantitative analysis of the available evidence with portraits of individual women and their lives.

Newspapers were hugely influential in late eighteenth-century England, yet little is known about how they operated. Looking at London and its provinces, this study examines newspapers and their successful operation and influence upon politics, as well as their relationship with politicians, readers, and public opinion.

This volume of annotated primary sources focuses on the lives of tradesmen and women in the northern 'industrial' and commercial towns of Leeds, Sheffield, Manchester and Liverpool from 1788 to 1832. Insights are offered into their domestic, familial, 'personal' and spiritual lives, their business dealings and links with their wider communities.
