Synopsis
Excerpt from The White Thread: A Novel
Bob Kingdom, although big enough to contain energy sufficient for two ordinary men, seldom spoke when a mild gesture would serve. Leisurely he pointed a plumb ing implement toward the prowling Gideon, and then pointed it down into the hole that contained his legs.

Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the evolution of the White Thread Movement, a 19th-century English working-class social movement that arose from a need for association in the wake of industrialization. As a peaceful, non-political pressure group that blended ritualism, symbolism, and an ethical code, the White Thread benefited its members through shared rituals and mutual aid. Drawing on extensive archival research, the author explores the origins, development, and ultimate decline of the White Thread, uncovering its relevance to issues of class, community, and social change in the face of 19th-century England's rapidly transforming economy and social fabric. The book sheds new light on an underappreciated yet fascinating chapter in labor history, ultimately demonstrating the enduring relevance of the values and practices the White Thread exemplified. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781334506895_0
