- Double-weighted statement
- In its analysis of previously unpublished sources and of visual and literary evidence, this book generates original and critical insights into the way in which an under-researched topic (rural working-class dress) adds a broader dimension to, and critical reappraisal of, the way we understand both social history and the history of dress/fashion. By investigating the topic within the social and cultural context of its time, it extends understanding of the symbolic/mythic status of landscape during the Victorian period, foregrounding dress as a crucial element within debates about, and visualisation of, the countryside during a period of rapid industrialisation and urbanisation.
