An Economic History of England 1870-1939
Author: William AshworthPublisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1136586431
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 457
Book Description
This is a comprehensive account of a decisive epoch in England's economic development by a leading economic historian. 'Works of economic history often get bogged dwon in figures - so many machines, so much unemployment, often, too, they are histories of technology, not of economic organization. Professor Ashworth goes to the opposite extreme in a most praiseworthy way: his book is actually good to read. Though there are tables of statistics (eleven of them), the book is an essay in interpretation, not an encyclopedia; it enriches our understanding rather than adding to our knowledge.' A.J.P. Taylor. This classic book was first published in 1960.

The Workshop of the World
Author: Jonathan David ChambersPublisher: Oxford University Press, USA
ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 188
Book Description
"The period of British economic history covered in these pages is that of Britain's transition from a primarily agricultural and commercial economy to a modern industrial state whose supremacy rested on her world-wide shipping and credit agencies and mutually advantageous relations with her dependent empire. At the end of this period, Britain as a pioneer of the world industrial revolution had given place to Britain, the world's banker, trader, and collier, in competition with other nations whom she had materially helped along that same way. In view of the efforts of developing nations today, the manner in which this first transition was managed becomes of particular import. Professor Chambers' admirably balanced summary touches on every important aspect of the change which 'involved the community in a simultaneous creation of new forms of industry and transport and in an immense effort in agriculture and building... (and) placed new strains on a social and political system which had to reconcile the demand for increased output with the dawning awareness on the part of labour that industrialization held the key to economic advance for all and not only for the privileged few.' Both text and bibliography have been completely revised for this new edition." - Back cover.
