What reading level is The Annals of Toil Being Labour History Outlines Roman And British book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
A craft-brother would bequeath house and lands to found a school or hospital, it might be, leaving the surplus income, if any, to the discretion of the Guild. These funds and numerous benefactions for the lending of money without usury to the poorer brethren, for apprenticing poor boys and girls, for bestowing marriage- THE ANNALS OF TOIL. 349 portions, and for pensioning widows and aged craftsmen, the Guild Managers carefully husbanded and allocated.
But, alas, in time the pernicious influence... of wealth began to make itself felt. The Guilds came to be governed by Courts of Assistants composed of the more prosperous Masters, and " Co-optation, " as in the Inns of Court to-day, superseded Election. Prohibitory apprenticeship fees were exacted ; so much so that in 1530 Parliament had to cut them down from 405. (16) to 2S. 6d. In order to prevent skilled labour from becoming an intolerable monopoly.
Nevertheless the wealth-controlled Courts of Assis- tants continued their machinations. Journeymen re- mained journeymen all their lives.
