Show Notes

I am very happy to bring you historian Joseph Stanley. Joseph is an expert on the 18th and 19th centuries, with a particular interest in the Yorkshire mining industries. After gaining his undergrad in History at Durham University, he went on the study for a PGCE at Cambridge. Joesph has recently completed his PhD which explored protest movements and the culture of work in Yorkshire, 1786 - 1839. In this episode we discuss working conditions down the mines, changes within the family unit, women and children, work houses and the industrial period more broadly. Enjoy!

Keep up to date with Joseph and his work here: @joestanley_s65.
