John Burnett has assembled 27 telling extracts from the diaries and autobiographies of working people--wheelwrights and stone-masons, miners and munition workers, butlers and kitchen maids, navvies, carpenters, potters and ship assistants to list only a few. The men and women who speak in these pages concentrate on their working experiences, though they also write about their homes and their fears. Burnett's broad and sympathetic introductions focus and contextualize the wealth of material. These stories provide the antithesis of "great name" history, yet they constantly touch on human experiences that are timeless and universal. 1976, Reprint. A very good copy only marked by light age tanning of the edges and a previous owners name sticker on the front free endpaper. The d/w is unclipped and fine. …
