Another 3 degrees of separation thread wander sort of.

Was in Hastings yesterday for a pals funeral, the morning of which found me at the town museum to pass a couple of hours. Hadn't realised until I came across a range of exhibits that Robert Tressell who wrote The Ragged Trousered Philanthropist that great and savage analysis on the relationship between the working classes and their employers around the time the Labour Party was being founded had lived for a while there and based Mugsborough on the town.

Great read and piece of social history.

I must have another read of the chapter called "The Great Money Trick"
