Rose's work is based on the prior compilation of around 2000 memoirs and autobiographies by working class people. This collection allows the reading habits of working class people in this period to be visible for the first time and some startling things become evident about working class reading and writing in the C19th. Rose is no EP Thompson but the richness of his data source gives us plenty of food for thought.
