"This text worked well for students who had little prior knowledge of the subject. It combines factual information and vivid description in a way that is useful and holds students' interest. The authors' strongly stated interpretation of power relations in 18th-century English society stimulated fruitful discussion in the classroom."--Marilyn Morris, University of North Texas"Eighteenth-Century English Society has a clear and well thought-out argument based on great scholarly knowledge of the period, is written in an accessible style, and includes a helpful appendix of maps and charts as well as a short annotated bibliography for each chapter."--Albion, This text worked well for students who had little prior knowledge of the subject.

Synopsis
The period from 1688-1820 was marked throughout with riots and rebellions, seditions and strikes, as the lower classes rebelled against the state bias towards the interests of higher social groups.This book draws together the implications of recent work on demography, labour, and law. By focusing on the experience of the eighty percent of the population who made up England's 'lower orders', Douglas Hay and Nicholas Rogers accord new significances to food shortages, changes in poor relief, use of the criminal law, and the shifts in social power caused by industrialization which would bring about the birth of working-class radicalism., The period from 1688-1820 was marked throughout with riots and rebellions, seditions and strikes. Yet it began with the welcoming of Prince William of Orange, whose coronation was widely celebrated as a move towards a more democratic state. Parliament and the courts were set to become a central feature of political life. But in 1819, fifteen men, women, and children were killed and over 400 injured when the yeomanry, directed by the magistracy, attacked the mass meeting for parliamentary reform at St Peter's Field, Manchester.The long eighteenth century was characterized by the gradual erosion of consensual politics: the transfer from a cross-class consensus based on the Whig/Tory divide to divisions based instead on the notion that the state privileged the interests of certain social groups over others. This book draws together the implications of recent work on demography, labour, and law to assess their importance for defining those moments and places where class interests met and conflicted.

Drawing on recent work on demography, labor, and law, this readable history of the period focuses on the experience of the eighty percent of the population who made up England's "lower orders."

Super impressed with this seller! They had the best price by far for this book! Both the cost of the book and the shipping fee was far better than average! The book came exactly as described, it was well packaged and quite a bit earlier than expected! The seller was polite and replied quickly to my messages.
I’ll definitely make another purchase soon!
Thank you to the seller! Be safe and keep up the great work!

WONDERFUL book! Better than described, in just like new condition [not just good]. Packaged very carefully, shipped very securely. Great seller, would buy from again in a heartbeat! No communication occurred, but I imagine it would have been as good as the rest of their customer service. Very happy with purchase, thank you very much!
