"The Condition of the Working-Class in England in 1844" by Frederick Engels is a powerful indictment of the Industrial Revolution's detrimental impact on workers. Engels meticulously demonstrates how industrial cities like Manchester and Liverpool experienced alarmingly high mortality rates due to diseases, with workers being four times more likely to succumb to illnesses like smallpox, measles, scarlet fever, and whooping cough compared to their rural counterparts. The overall death rate in these cities far surpassed the national average, painting a grim picture of the workers' plight. Engels goes beyond mortality statistics to shed light on the dire living conditions endured by industrial workers. He argues that their wages were lower than those of pre-industrial workers, and they were forced to inhabit unhealthy and unpleasant environments. Addressing a German audience, Engels' work is considered a classic account of the universal struggles faced by the industrial working class. It reveals his transformation into a radical thinker after witnessing the harsh realities in England. "The Condition of the Working-Class in England in 1844" remains an essential resource for understanding the hardships endured by workers during the Industrial Revolution. Engels' meticulous research and impassioned arguments continue to shape discussions on labor rights, social inequality, and the historical agency of the working class.

What happens when the football team you support suddenly gains new owners and new ideas? Get a Football Coach that seems more like a Philosopher than a footballer? What happens when your team start playing beautiful football? Get promoted to the Premier League? What happens when they start doing everything right but you, the doughnut who goes every week to watch them has to deal with the dichotomy of your team doing well while you are eating Fray Bentos pies and looking for bargains in Poundland? Enjoy the tales and the madness from Sunderland to Southampton. From the top of a Welsh Mountain to the cloying atmosphere of London. But more importantly find out how a Philosopher from a small island in the Atlantic came to the Midlands of England to stamp a philosophy and a movement on a team that held glory as a distant monochrome memory and in his own way brought a whole City to it's feet to sing his name. 'Viva Nuno' is a strange book. Metaphysics, Psychogeography, friends dealing with Heroin withdrawal, broken legs, broken hearts. There is love, beautiful football, tears, anger, near death experiences. This book runs through a whole gamut of emotive experiences and was written 'on the spot' and barely changed from notes written on the back of programmes and on phones. It's a ride of a lifetime that runs from the lowest points of this record breaking Wolves season to the very highest. Sometimes the confusion is evident in the prose but that confusion is all part and parcel of the experience and the insanity. "We are the media now.....fuck, my biscuit has fell in my tea. Yeah the disinformation, the fake articles, the men in tight suits and tighter expense accounts, the back slappers, the sidlers, idlers, the useless dregs of the old order...picking out a floating half a biscuit in hot tea, shoving it in your face while your fingers burn. Got it all out too. Kwan. Belief. Just say No to Fake Football journalism."My advice is to settle down and be open to this particular experience. Make a cup of tea and grab a packet of biscuits. Find out what experiences we have shared as football fans. This book will make you cry, laugh, shout, throw stuff. But more importantly it will show you how football affects supporters in their day to day lives. This book is for us and for every other football supporter that has lost hope. Never forget...'Out of Darkness Cometh Light'
