Burdett, Charles Elliott Family Or the Trial of New York Seamstresses, the New York E. Winchester, New World Press 1845 Hardcover Very Good Book Part of the Wrongs of American Women, First Series. Wraps, 162 page novel recounts sufferings of the Elliott girls who, like so many young women in New York, had to help their family survive by taking in sewing as outwork. They were, according to the novel, exploited mercilessly by the contractors who hired them. Here is an early form of the sweating system that dispersed the different stages of the production process around the city instead of gathering them all under one roof, the factory. In this case, despite some assistance from good samaritans, the outcome for the family is sad. Anti-capitalist and pro-feminist sentiments mixed. Worn, soiled and foxed in appearance, missing rear paper cover, Rebacked. Relevant literary history combined with popular culture, labor history, women's studies. 4pps of publisher adverts in rear. Rare indeed. 1st edn. 96461 Price:
600.00 USD
