Abstract or Introduction
The large-scale industrialisation of Manchester and other English cities in the early nineteenth century was without precedent and was subject to significant commentary and interpretation as writers and thinkers were both drawn to and repelled by what seemed to be a new way of living. This essay examines such commentary and how it led to social improvement for the urban working classes of the nineteenth century.
