the long version

Manchester was the original modern city. From the notorious districts of high mortality around 1840, through the scandals around 1900 over the poor physiques of would-be soldiers, it has been a classic case in the world-history of industrialisation and health. This book briefly reviews the story to World War Two, including new historical research; but then the focus is on the lesser-known history of the last sixty years.
