'The Ten Hours’ Bill: The History Of Factory Legislation' delves into the arduous journey of British factory reform from its inception in 1802 to its culmination in 1850. Authored by Philip Grant, with contributions from Anthony Ashley Cooper, the Earl of Shaftesbury, this work meticulously chronicles the legislative battles and social movements that shaped labor laws in 19th-century Britain. The book provides a step-by-step account of the parliamentary debates, including the initial efforts led by the first Sir Robert Peel and the ultimate success championed by Lord Ashley. It includes a wealth of primary source material such as incidents, letters, and speeches. It offers a detailed perspective on the historical context, challenges, and personalities involved in the fight for improved working conditions, making it an invaluable resource for understanding the evolution of labor rights and the socio-economic transformations of the Industrial Revolution.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
