More about the book
The exploration of working-class male leisure from 1850 to 1945 reveals its significance in shaping social dynamics and citizenship. Observers, especially middle-class reformers, viewed popular leisure as a reflection of working-class habits, crucial for fostering a bond with the newly enfranchised male worker. This book challenges the notion of a fragmented working-class culture by highlighting its continuity and active participation in cultural contestation, despite socio-economic changes. Drawing on rich primary and secondary sources, it offers valuable insights for students and scholars across various disciplines.
