Book Description
Excerpt from The Vicars of Rochdale, Vol. 1 HE late canon raines was facile primeps among Lancashire Antiquaries. Christopher townley may have rivalled him in devotion as a collector of materials, while Dr. Whitaker far exceeded him in picturesqueness and the graces of style, but, measured by his breadth of sympathy, his extraordinary industry, the general accuracy of his work, and the amount of materials he collected for our profit, we must place Canon raines at the head of the long roll of men who have searched out and criticised the orzigz'nes and shifting panorama of Lancashire history. He was equally at home in the laborious collection Of details for illustrating family history and local topography, and in describing, on a larger canvas, the lives of Lan cashire statesmen, divines, and patriots. Many of the muniment rooms in the county, usually sealed, were freely Opened to him, and he has made admirable use Of his opportunities. With that rare catholicity which is the supreme gift Of a local antiquary, he has filled the forty six large volumes he has left us with materials of every kind of interest. Fastidiousness is fatal to a collector, and he alone deserves the name who remembers that there are as many varying palates as there are varying fishes in the sea.

Book Description
A history of the common people and the Industrial Revolution: “A true masterpiece” and one of the Modern Library’s 100 Best Nonfiction Books of the twentieth century (Tribune). During the formative years of the Industrial Revolution, English workers and artisans claimed a place in society that would shape the following centuries. But the capitalist elite did not form the working class—the workers shaped their own creations, developing a shared identity in the process. Despite their lack of power and the indignity forced upon them by the upper classes, the working class emerged as England’s greatest cultural and political force. Crucial to contemporary trends in all aspects of society, at the turn of the nineteenth century, these workers united into the class that we recognize all across the Western world today. E. P. Thompson’s magnum opus, The Making of the English Working Class defined early twentieth-century English social and economic history, leading many to consider him Britain’s greatest postwar historian. Its publication in 1963 was highly controversial in academia, but the work has become a seminal text on the history of the working class. It remains incredibly relevant to the social and economic issues of current times, with the Guardian saying upon the book’s fiftieth anniversary that it “continues to delight and inspire new readers.”
