Put Yourself in His Place
Charles Reade
British English version, fully re-edited version with footnotes and introduction. Unlike the only other available software-generated versions, this has been manually checked and had errors removed. It is not based on US versions. This is the oldest known Sheffield novel, written by a contemporary of Dickens and Elliott, loosely based on the true story of a London woodcarving-tool maker, James Bacon Addis, who was brought to Sheffield by tool manufacturers Ward and Payne. It is a Victorian melodrama interweaving class, heroism, love, treachery, and tragedy into actual events: the "Sheffield outrages": battles to protect union membership often through violent means in order to defend labour against capital, the Great Sheffield Flood etc. It all comes together in a happy ending, with all plot threads neatly tied together.
