About this book

Women in Industry collects work by Clara Collet (1860-1948), the pioneering English economist and civil servant who investigated women's work and wages for the Board of Trade and before that assisted Charles Booth's great survey of London labour. Collet brought statistics to questions Victorian England preferred to moralise about: what women actually earned, in which trades, and why. She was also a longtime friend and correspondent of the novelist George Gissing. Her papers remain foundations of British labour history.
