Slight foxing to end inside covers. Slight shelf wear to edge of D/J. London labour and the London Poort, first published in 1851 was described by Henry Mayhew as 'the first attempt to publish the history of a people, from the lips of the people themselves - giving a literal description of their labour, their earnings, their trials, and their sufferings, in their own 'unvarnished' language, and to portray the condition of their homes and their families by personal observation of the places, and direct communion with the individuals. With the help of two collaborators he interviewed some thousands of the people then to be found in the London streets. He elicited from them their life stories which he recorded in their own words, and this volume presents a wide variety of them in their complete original form. This book in its immensely rich and various material from the lips of the people themselves, reflects the comedy and the tragedy of the Victorian streets. Illustrations. 360 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions, Reference books ,and all types of Academic Literature.).
