'Four Years in the Underbrush: Adventures as a working woman in New York', is the anonymously-written novel about a woman who went undercover in the domestic service, in New York. She wanted to gather firsthand experience as to what it would be like working minimum wage jobs, such as restaurant staff or working in a candy factory, as she was researching for her book. Her protagonist would be working in such jobs, and she wanted her writing to be as realistic as possible. This led to the writer spending four years (1916-1920), working low-end jobs, and living in rented units or tenement buildings, and meeting a vast array of struggling New Yorkers who were trying to pay for rising food costs and household bills during the Great War, and also post-war during the tail-end of her research stint. She met people from all walks of life, and from many different countries, many of them who had immigrated into New York, seeking a better life.

Since the Gilded Age, social scientists, middle-class reformers, and writers have left the comforts of their offices to "pass" as steel workers, coal miners, assembly-line laborers, waitresses, hoboes, and other working and poor people in an attempt to gain a fuller and more authentic understanding of the lives of the working class and the poor. In this first, sweeping study of undercover investigations of work and poverty in America, award-winning historian Mark Pittenger examines how intellectuals were shaped by their experiences with the poor, and how despite their sympathy toward working-class people, they unintentionally helped to develop the contemporary concept of a degraded and "other" American underclass. While contributing to our understanding of the history of American social thought, Class Unknown offers a new perspective on contemporary debates over how we understand and represent our own society and its class divisions.

He walked the streets of Charleston in her hour of deepest humiliation and rode into Richmond on the day that the stars of the Union were thrown in triumph to the breeze above the confederate Capitol.Coffin's authentic narratives of events and incidents of life in camp, hospital and on the march during the long hours of battle on land and at sea reproduce the scenes of the Civil War.

Rooted in the printed sources of the period, this book reconstructs the attitudes of a pioneer generation of young women to the conflicts brought about by their new experience of employment outside their homes, and to changes in work and family relationships. In the 1890s and after the still prevalent Victorian conception of respectable womanhood excluded wage-earning women. Yet working-class women themselves did not acquiesce in this judgement, and Eisenstein’s exploration of Victorian ideas about women and work – using the contemporary middle-class literature of advice and prescription to this new workforce – makes a historical study which is a classic of its kind. The book was originally published in 1983.
