Descrizione The Archaeology of Class in Urban America
What factors informed notions of class in early centres of capitalism? What material clues can we look to when probing the lives of workers? Examining Newport, Rhode Island in the eighteenth century and Lowell, Massachusetts, in the nineteenth century, this book addresses the question of class identity through documentary, archaeological and environmental evidence. Stephen Mrozowski offers a vivid reconstruction of workers' lives and gives significant new insights into how material realities shaped class identity. This engaging study will appeal to archaeologists, students of urban history and of social science.
