Morgan, Iain Sinclair, London School of Economics Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description This insightful, evocative, and sumptuous volume brings Charles Booths landmark survey of late nineteenth-century London to a new audience. Publisher Description A splendid - and necessary - publication...a great resourceIain SinclairCharles Booths landmark survey of life in late-19th-century London, published for the first time in one volume.In the late nineteenth century, Charles Booths landmark social and economic survey found that 35 percent of Londoners were living in abject poverty. Booths team of social investigators interviewed Londoners from all walks of life, recording their comments, together with their own unrestrained remarks and statistical information, in 450 notebooks. Their findings formed the basis of Booths colour-coded social mapping (from vicious and semi-criminal to wealthy) and his seventeen-volume survey Inquiry into the Life and Labour of the People of London, 1886-1903.Organized into six geographical sections, Charles Booths London Poverty Maps presents the hand-colored preparatory and printed social mapping of London. Accompanying the maps are reproductions of pages from the original notebooks, containing anecdotes and observations too judgmental for Booth to include in his final published survey. An introduction by professor Mary S. Morgan clarifies the aims and methodology of Booths survey and six themed essays contextualize the the surveys findings, accompanied by evocative period photographs.Providing insights into the minutia of everyday life viewed through the lens of inhabitants of every trade, class, creed, and nationality, Charles Booths London Poverty Maps brings to life the diversity and dynamism of late nineteenth-century London. Author Biography The London School of Economics holds the Charles Booth archive. Mary S. Morgan is Professor of the History of Economics in the London School of Economics.
