New ImageViewer on Origins.net!
Over the past few months, we have listened to customer feedback and have developed a new image viewer for Origins.net. This allows easier searching for all users, including those accessing Origins.net from a Mac.
One of the best ways to check out the ImageViewer is to browse the Children’s Employment Commission of 1842.
This huge government publication contains evidence on the employment of children. Evidence is given by interviews with employers, adult workers and children, relating to work and lifestyle conditions. This fascinating and vivid resource provides detailed information on early 19th century social conditions in the manufacturing areas of Great Britain and Ireland.
