The Life, Times & Labours of Robert Owen - Volume I & II; With a Biography by Leslie Stephen

First published in 1890, "The Life, Times & Labours of Robert Owen" is a two-volume biography of Robert Owen by Irish socialist and activist Lloyd Jones. Robert Owen (1771-1858) was a Welsh textile manufacturer, philanthropist, and social reformer. Owen founded utopian socialism and the cooperative movement, but is perhaps best known for his endeavours to improve factory working conditions. This detailed biography covers his life from youth until his last days, with a particular focus on his contributions to social reform. Contents include: "Birth and Boyhood", "Starts as his Own Master", "The Dying of the Old", "The Birth of the New", "Struggles Onward", "Visit to Scotland", "Purchase of the New Lanark Mills", "His Policy at New Lanark", "Mr Dale's Confidence in Him", "The Fight and its Difficulties", etc. Other notable works by this author include: "A Reply to Mr. R. Carlile's Objections to the Five Fundamental Facts as Laid Down by Mr. Owen" (1837) and "The Progress of the Working Class, 1832-1867" (1867). Read & Co. History is republishing this classic biography now in a new facsimile edition complete with an introductory chapter by Leslie Stephen from "Dictionary of National Biography, 1885-1900, Volume 42".
