On The Employment Of Children: In Factories And Other Works In The United Kingdom And In Some Foreign Countries is a book written by Leonard Horner in 1840. The book is a detailed study of the employment of children in factories and other works in the United Kingdom and some foreign countries. It highlights the harsh working conditions that children were subjected to during the industrial revolution and the negative impact it had on their physical and mental health.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a specific aspect of child labor. Horner discusses the age at which children were allowed to work, the number of hours they were expected to work, and the types of work they were engaged in. He also examines the impact of child labor on education and the moral development of children.Horner's book is an important historical document that sheds light on the social and economic conditions of the industrial revolution. It was one of the first works to highlight the issue of child labor and played a significant role in the campaign to improve working conditions for children. The book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of labor and social reform.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
