The British Workman

The British Workman was an English broadsheet periodical, published monthly by Partridge and Co in London.

[2] It was published between 1855 and 1892, and aimed to "promote the health, wealth and happiness of the working classes".

The text, written by a number of authors, was a mixture of socialism and Protestantism.

Collections of the magazine are held in a number of libraries including the Bodleian Library in Oxford; and the Heatherbank Museum of Social Work, which holds an incomplete run of annual bound copies from 1855 to 1892.

Selected issues and further information on the magazine can be found on the Business, Labour, Trade and Temperance site.
