Description:
"Luskey combines the methods of cultural and social history to accomplish a tricky feat: he maps out, on the one hand, the structural impediments to clerks' quest for "economic capital," and on the other hand, the hazardous discursive field in which they pursued "cultural capital." Making use of diaries, credit reports, manuscript census schedules, and a variety of print media, he skillfully documents the clerk's many travails."
