Book Synopsis
An examination of mobility, inequality, and the unfolding of lives on three continents during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.

Trade Review
"The use of longitudinal historical data created by linking individual-level information in two or more large-scale databases is a relatively new technique to study patterns of social and geographic mobility. The chapters in Lives in Transition draw on census material from Canada, the United States, Australia, and New Zealand and, as a result, scholars from an array of countries will be able to see firsthand how this technique can generate new and interesting lines of historical and sociological inquiry." Vic Satzewich, Department of Sociology, McMaster University " The sheer range and variety of types of longitudinal historical analyses presented in this collection, and the range of questions asked about various standard views in historiographies, do indeed highlight the method skilfully and admirably." Australian Historical Studies
