Description
1854 White Slaves of England Factory Conditions Mining Child SLAVERY India
John Cobdens White Slaves of England is a mid-19th-century account of the work conditions in England at the time. Cobden describes British mines and factories, the strenuous workshop system, Irish slavery, slaves in British-ruled India, and the crimes of the English government. The illustrations in this work show the horrors of labor practices – especially the images of mine workers.
This 1854 American edition was certainly published as pro-slavery propaganda, in a time when the fight over slavery reigned supreme in the United States.
