Ideal Surroundings: Domestic Life in a Working-Class Suburb in the 1920s

By Suzanne Morton

Suzanne Morton looks at a single working-class community as it responded to national and regional changes in the 1920s. Grounded in labour and feminist history, with a strong emphasis on domestic life, this analysis focuses on the relationship between gender ideals and the actual experience of different family members.
