Synopsis

Despite a considerable volume of research on 19th-century towns in Britain and America, there has been little attempt so far to search for links between these empirical studies, and to relate them to more general theories of 19th-century urban development. This book provides an integrated series of chapters which discuss recent trends and research problems in the study of 19th-century cities and which, in drawing together the strands of existing research, suggest important new areas for investigation. It will be of value to researchers in urban geography, social history and historical geography. Contents: Part I Introduction / 1.
