Thompson's The Making of the English Working Class (1963) is a landmark work of social history that explores how the English working class came into being during the Industrial Revolution. Thompson argues that class is not a fixed economic category but a historical processa lived relationship shaped through experience, culture, and collective struggle. He emphasizes that the working class was not simply a result of industrial capitalism but was actively formed through the experiences of ordinary people. These included disruptions brought by industrializationsuch as urbanization, the breakdown of traditional work patterns, and the rise of factory laboras well as their responses to these changes through movements like Luddism, Methodism, and trade unionism. Thompson highlights how political radicalism played a key role in shaping working-class consciousness. The ideas of the French Revolution, the influence of thinkers like Thomas Paine and William Cobbett, and movements like Chartism contributed to a sense of shared identity and resistance. A central theme of the book is Thompson's rejection of economic determinism. He insists on the agency of working people, showing how they interpreted their conditions, formed solidarities, and created a class identity through struggle, rather than being passively shaped by economic forces. Culture, religion, literature, and moral values are also integral to Thompson's analysis. He demonstrates how these elements influenced how the working class understood itself and the world, weaving them into a broader narrative of political and social development. This work remains foundational for its humanistic approach to history, its emphasis on lived experience, and its enduring message that class is something made by people, not something that simply happens to them.

A pivotal work of English social history, Thompson's book placed workers at the centre of their own history for the first time and has been variously described as 'one of the most influential historical books of the twentieth century' and as a 'manifesto for the New Left'. In November 2015 the book was placed at number 11 on the list of 20 Academic Books that Changed the World along with Darwin's "Origin of Species" and Paine's "Rights of Man" amongst others. Scarce, especially so in such a well preserved fragile sugar-paper dust-jacket.
