This book brings together in a coherent way the most formative articles in our thinking about women's work in English history for both the early modern and modern periods. The material is presented in an accessible way for seminar discussions and many of the writings are core texts for essay reading lists. The commentary will put the chapters into context and highlight controversies and the future direction of scholarly work in this field.

'Sharpe has a solid command of the issues involved, and her introduction as well as the commentary provides a sound guide to students who may be coming to some of this material for the first time. At the same time, the collection as a whole will be useful to academics relatively new to this area, or those wishing to gain a quick grasp of many of the issues.' Labour History Review
