Children's Employment Commission Part II - 1842 is a government publication containing evidence on the work and lifestyle conditions of children.

Evidence was collected from personal interviews with hundreds of children and young adults, as well as parents, employers, clergymen, medical men, magistrates, teachers, and others.

This extraordinarily rich and vivid resource gives detailed information on early 19th century social conditions in the manufacturing areas of Great Britain and Ireland.
