The Condition of the Working Class in England
Friedrich Engels
The Condition of the Working Class in England (German: Die Lage der arbeitenden Klasse in England) is an 1845 book by the German philosopher Friedrich Engels, a study of the industrial working class in Victorian England. It was Engels' first book and had originally been written in German, but an English translation was published in 1887. It was written during Engels' 1842–1844 stay in Salford and Manchester, the city at the heart of the Industrial Revolution, and compiled from Engels' own observations and detailed contemporary reports.

Vivek’s Notes
Engels wrote the book while staying in Manchester from 1842 to 1845. He would go on to collaborate on another, rather better-known work published in 1848.
