This book is a sociological portrait of Marseille during the epochal changes of the nineteenth century. Sewell establishes a systematic quantitative description of some of the most important social structures of nineteenth-century Marseille. Although deeply influenced by sociological methods and theories, the volume is written on the basis of readability and simplicity, and therefore has much to offer to the historian as well as the sociologist.
