Phases Of Distress: Lancashire Rhymes (1864)

""Phases of Distress: Lancashire Rhymes"" is a collection of poems written by Joseph Ramsbottom and first published in 1864. The poems are written in the Lancashire dialect, which was commonly spoken in the northern region of England during the 19th century. The collection is a reflection of the distress and hardship experienced by the working-class people of Lancashire during the industrial revolution. The poems explore themes such as poverty, unemployment, and the struggles of everyday life. Ramsbottom's writing is known for its raw and emotional portrayal of the working-class experience, and his use of the Lancashire dialect adds an authentic and unique voice to the collection. ""Phases of Distress"" is a significant work in the history of English literature, as it captures the social and economic realities of a particular time and place in British history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
