Mistaken Aims and Attainable Ideals of the Artizan Class is a book written by William Rathbone Greg and first published in 1876. The book is a critique of the artisan class in England during the 19th century and their misguided goals and aspirations. Greg argues that the artisans, who were skilled workers in various trades such as carpentry, blacksmithing, and weaving, were too focused on material gain and individual success, rather than the greater good of society.Greg suggests that the artisans should strive for a more cooperative and communal approach to their work, rather than a competitive one. He also advocates for the education and training of the artisan class, so that they can become more skilled and knowledgeable in their trades. Greg believes that this will lead to greater innovation and progress in the arts and industry, and ultimately benefit society as a whole.The book is a fascinating insight into the social and economic issues of 19th century England, and the challenges faced by the working class. It is an important historical document that sheds light on the struggles and aspirations of the artisan class, and the ways in which they sought to improve their lives and their communities.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
