He was the first writer to reveal to the comfortable and secure citizens of his own generation another London of which they were unaware. Disraeli's 'two nations' were never in starker contrast than in the capital itself. His work has lost none of its relevance and importance for the present day. It reminds us of what life was like for thousands in the greatest city of the world, and remains a vital document for historical understanding or any kind of social perspective. London Labour and the London Poor was based on a series of letters which Mayhew wrote for the Morning Chronicle in 1849~50. During the course of his investigations he discerned the numerous sub~cultures that existed among the poor, and described often in minute detail the occupations and preoccupations of the multifarious tribes who lived in the rookeries and tenements of the east end, and worked in the streets and the sweat~shops of Whitechapel, Limehouse and Wapping, of Shadwell, Rotherhithe and the Ratcliff Highway. Here to the life are many of Dickens' seamier characters. His story is one which tells of a deadly struggle for existence, always enlightened by compassion and often with humour. There was no welfare state, no safety net for the unemployed, the unfit or the disabled; life confronted one with the starkest choice ~ either survival, or the workhouse to which many preferred death. But all was not doom and gloom; London, even Mayhew's half of it, was in many ways a more vital and colourful city than it is today. The editor has selected a cross~section from Mayhew's immense work, and presents it here accompanied for the first time by many contemporary black~and~white illustrations and eight pages of colour. 'Do you read the Morning Chronicle? Do you devour those marvellous revelations of the inferno of misery, of wretchedness, that is smouldering under our feet? We live in a mockery of Christianity that, with the thought of its hypocrisy, makes me sick. We know nothing of this terrible life that is about us ~ us, in our smug respectability. To read of the sufferings of one class, and the avarice, the tyranny, the pocket cannibalism of the other, makes one almost wonder that the world should go on . 'I send you the Chronicle of yesterday. You will read therein what I think you will agree to be one of the most beautiful records of the nobility of the poor; of those whom our jaunty legislators know nothing . For comprehensiveness of purpose and minuteness of detail they [Mayhew's letters] have never been approached. He will cut his name deep.' ~Douglas Jerrold, writing to a friend in February, 1850, about Mayhew's Chronicle letters.
