The Original Rochdale Pioneers
ISBN-13: 9781326705220 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 352 str.
In 1844 a diverse group of working men banded together in an attempt to improve their own lives by acting for themselves instead of relying on others. They formed the Rochdale Equitable Pioneer Society and opened a store in Toad Lane which was to be run on the ideals of honest weights and unadulterated food. In the 172 years since its establishment, many stories, myths and misconceptions have arisen. This richly researched book offers a unique study into the lives of the individuals themselves and highlights differences in many of the commonly held beliefs about the Pioneers. The latter half of the book includes a complete transcription of the original Minutes of the Society from 1844 to 1851.
