Friendly societies provided mutual aid to many working class Britons during the nineteenth century. But these societies were just one iteration of a larger conceptual mode of organizing reciprocity. This book traces the ways in which contemporaries adapted the concept to make promises of collective responsibility effective - even among strangers.
