Recommendation: This book is a great read for those interested in understanding the social and economic dynamics of Moscow's working class during the late 19th century. The author delves into the lives of both peasants and proletarians, breaking down the class divide and revealing the common struggles they faced. One unique feature of the book is its attention to the intersections of gender and class, providing a nuanced understanding of the working class at that time.
