The feel-good place to buy books
From Manufacturing to Industry, 1700-1850 by John Robottom
This series of short books covers the major topics in British history since 1700. The approach is one which integrates narrative, sources, questions and activities for the practice of a range of historical skills. The narrative and the wide variety of sources are aimed at those of average ability. The whole series provides an evidence-based approach suitable for GCSE students. Manufacturing was literally that - making goods by hand. It was very much a home-based activity. By 1850 this had changed: industry with its huge mills and factories and large worker-filled towns had arrived. This volume not only explains how and why these changes occurred and the effects they had on the lives of thousands, but it also shows that the change-over to industry was not totally complete by this time and the old way often persisted.| SKU | Unavailable |
