About this product
Product Information
This volume examines the growth and development of English towns in the critical period between 1650 and 1850. Christopher Chalklin surveys market and county towns, port and manufacturing centers, new dockyard towns, spas and seaside resorts. He discusses house and public building, education, work and leisure activities, public duties and politics, and contrasts the emerging middle classes with the artisan and laboring masses. This concise study draws especially on recent publications incorporating new knowledge and interpretations. It will be a valuable resource for students of economic, social and urban history.

Reviews
'… a very useful summary of recent scholarship on the subject … His splendid new edition should make this 'extensive ledger of disappointment and bitterness' much better known.'Southern History Society, "Dr. Chalkin achieves the notable feat of compressing two hundred years of urban history into less than eighty pages of text. Particularly welcome, and reflecting one of Chalkin's particular areas of expertise, is a wide-ranging chapter devoted to the construction of towns: their physical fabric, how building was undertaken, and who paid for it." H-Net Reviews, '… a very useful summary of recent scholarship on the subject … His splendid new edition should make this 'extensive ledger of disappointment and bitterness' much better known.' Southern History Society, "this is a book that will prove very useful to students approaching the subject for the first time...remarkably detailed" EH.NET Oct 2001, '... a very useful summary of recent scholarship on the subject ... His splendid new edition should make this 'extensive ledger of disappointment and bitterness' much better known.' Southern History Society
