Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the transformation of England at the turn of the 20th century, a period characterized by rapid industrialization and urbanization. The author delves into the changing social landscape, specifically focusing on the rise of the "city race" - a new type of urban dweller born and raised within the cramped and often bleak conditions of the burgeoning cities. This city race, the book argues, is distinct from the more traditional rural English population, both physically and mentally. The book explores the impact of this new urban populace on society, highlighting the challenges presented by the rapid growth of cities, the plight of the poor, and the impact of industrialization on working conditions. The author challenges the prevailing notion that economic growth alone will solve these problems. Instead, he calls for active social reform and intervention to address the social ills that threaten the fabric of English society. This book offers a compelling and insightful look into a critical period in English history, providing a timeless perspective on the challenges and opportunities that arise when industrialization and urbanization reshape the lives of ordinary people. 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. …
