5.0 out of 5 stars Working women, October 4, 2009
This review is from: Women at Work: The Transformation of Work and Community in Lowell, Massachusetts, 1826-1860 (Paperback)
Fascinating study about the lives of working women in the Lowell mills from the development of the weaving mills in the early 1820's through the 1860's. Loved the statistical analyses provided in the book. More of a reference work than a recital of daily life, although the section on boarding house life was enlightening. Highly recommended.

So overall, I would recommend it to textile fanatics, only they would find the book entertaining.
