    Questions about the Sources

    1. What are the differences between these two sources?

    2. If you were studying factory life in Britain between 1800 and 1851, would these both be
    “primary sources?” One? None? Briefly explain.

    3. Which of these two accounts makes factory working conditions seem more real to you?
    Why?

    4. Which of the accounts is probably more reliable? Why?

    5. Do you think that Edward Cheyney used testimony like Elizabeth Bentley’s to write his
    account? Why or why not?

    6. Historians do not include everything in their accounts. How do you think Mr. Cheyney
    decided what to include? What do you think made something important enough to include
    in Cheyney’s account?
