Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Introduction to English Industrial History This book is an attempt to make a really interesting, simple and suggestive introduction to industrial and economic history. It is intended mainly to stimulate our young men and women of all classes to take up earnestly the study of this important subject, which has hitherto been beyond the reach of most young people because the only available text-books have been either out-of-date or far too learned and academic, as well as too expensive. The author´s difficulty has been to know what to omit, but every effort has been made to include only the essential features and to present those in such a form as will tempt students to read the larger and more advanced books on the subject. A descriptive list of the most interesting books on the various portions of the subject will be found in the appendix. The sketch of a manor is, it is hoped, simple without being misleading. The two population maps are intended to illustrate clearly the growth of population in the eighteenth century. Thanks are due to Mr. J. Munro, M.A. (Beit Lecturer in Colonial History at the University of Oxford), and to my wife, to whom the author owes many suggestions and kind criticisms; and to Messrs. A. L. Smith, M.A., and H. W. C. Davis, M.A. (both of Balliol College, Oxford), who have, by their teaching, made this book possible, but are, of course, not responsible for any of the statements made.
