Women's Work and Wages: A Phase of Life in an Industrial City is a book written by Edward Cadbury and originally published in 1907. It is a detailed study of the working conditions and wages of women in Birmingham, England during the early 20th century. The book examines the various industries that employed women, including the manufacture of buttons, pens, and jewelry, as well as the textile and food industries. Cadbury provides statistical data on wages, hours worked, and living conditions, and also includes personal accounts from women workers.The book is divided into two parts. The first part provides an overview of the various industries and the conditions under which women worked. It also discusses the impact of industrialization on women's work and the role of women in the labor market. The second part of the book focuses on the wages earned by women and the cost of living in Birmingham. Cadbury analyzes the factors that influenced wages, such as age, skill level, and type of work, and compares women's wages to those of men.Overall, Women's Work and Wages provides a comprehensive and insightful look at the lives of working women in Birmingham during a time of significant social and economic change. It is an important historical document that sheds light on the challenges faced by women in the workforce and the efforts to improve their working conditions and wages.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
