The White Slaves of England is a book written by John C. Cobden in 1853. The book focuses on the plight of the working class in England during the 19th century, particularly the factory workers and their living and working conditions. Cobden argues that these workers were essentially slaves, forced to work long hours for little pay, and living in squalid conditions. The book also addresses the issue of child labour and the exploitation of women in the workplace. Cobden calls for reforms to improve the working conditions of these workers, including better wages, shorter working hours, and improved living conditions. The book is a powerful critique of the industrial revolution and the impact it had on the working class in England. It is considered an important work in the history of social reform and a key text in the fight for workers' rights.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
