The Labour Aristocracy Revisited

Sorry for the long link. [Mod: Link converted to clickable text] 
I've come across some of it in a different format and didn't realise it was in book form

Appears to be lots of information and of course, source references, for the pressed glass industry.

thanks m  -  looks very interesting, although surprised that the period under review appears to be quite a short time span.          I've not heard of the book, but will definitely find a copy from somewhere.    thanks.

There is info in there from earlier I think - I did read something about Richardson's machine to press glass in 1832.
I've read it (or some of it) before in dissertation format - I didn't realise it had been published as a book.
