Title continues: "A Cyclopaedia of the Condition and Earnings of Those That Will Work, Those That Cannot Work, and Those That Will Not Work." Set consists of volumes I and II and the first 192 pages of vol. III which have been bound at the end of vol. II. Mayhew's social research is a very serious work of Victorian journalism. The author observed, documented, and described the state of the working people in London for a series of articles in a newspaper, the Morning Chronicle. The books make fascinating reading today, showing how precarious many people's lives were, despite living in one of the richest cities in the world. More photos available on request.
