Publisher's Synopsis

This volume traces the relentless mid-nineteenth century transformation of Luton, from market town to manufacturing centre. The distinctive nature of the local economy, the challenges posed by unrestricted urban growth, religion, education and politics are some of the themes which are analysed in turn.
