Women's Work and Wages: A Phase of Life in an Industrial City is a book written by Edward Cadbury and first published in 1907. The book is a study of the lives of working-class women in Birmingham, England, during the early 20th century. Cadbury examines the various types of work available to women at the time, including factory work, domestic service, and shop work. He also looks at the wages these women earned and the conditions under which they worked.The book is divided into two parts. The first part focuses on the types of work available to women and the wages they earned. Cadbury provides detailed data on the wages earned by women in various industries, including the textile and metalworking industries. He also looks at the working conditions in these industries, including the hours worked and the level of physical exertion required.The second part of the book looks at the lives of working-class women outside of work. Cadbury examines the living conditions of these women, including the quality of their housing and the availability of basic amenities such as running water and sanitation. He also looks at the social and cultural lives of these women, including their leisure activities and the extent to which they were able to participate in civic life.Overall, Women's Work and Wages provides a detailed and insightful look at the lives of working-class women in early 20th century England. Cadbury's research is thorough and his analysis is thoughtful, making this book an important contribution to the study of women's history and the history of industrialization.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
