Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the decline of the cotton textiles industry, which defined Britain as an industrial nation, from its peak in the late nineteenth century to the state of the industry at the end of the twentieth century. Focusing on the owners and managers of cotton businesses, the authors examine how they mobilised financial resources; their attitudes to industry structure and technology; and their responses to the challenges posed by global markets. The origins of the problems which forced the industry into decline are not found in any apparent loss of competitiveness during the long nineteenth century but rather in the disastrous reflotation after the First World War. As a consequence of these speculations, rationalisation and restructuring became more difficult at the time when they were most needed, and government intervention led to a series of partial solutions to what became a process of protracted decline. In the post-1945 period, the authors show how government policy encouraged capital withdrawal rather than encouraging the investment needed for restructuring. The examples of corporate success since the Second World War – such as David Alliance and his Viyella Group – exploited government policy, access to capital markets, and closer relationships with retailers, but were ultimately unable to respond effectively to international competition and the challenges of globalisation. The chapters in this book were originally published in Business History and Accounting, Business and Financial History.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cotton: The Universal Fiber, a Survey of the Cotton Industry From the Raw Material to the Finished Product, Including Descriptions of Manufacturing and Marketing Methods and a Dictionary of Cotton Goods The Dry Goods Economist presents this little book to the public and to the trade believing that it fills a long felt want. Letters have come to us for years asking for such a work, but not until recently have we had the information necessary to give a comprehensive yet condensed story of cotton - its history, its production and the final form in which it reaches the consumer. Those whose interest is confined to the use of cotton will gain greater pleasure from their cotton clothing when possessed of the knowledge contained in the pages that follow. The student of textiles will find the facts as presented a veritable mine of information. Few books of any size contain so much authoritative data as has been assembled herein. The teacher of textiles will use this little book to make assignments for research into the various branches of the cotton industry because of the vast number of suggestions found in these pages. The buyer of cotton in any of its stages will find his work more interesting and more profitable after a reading of "Cotton - The Universal Fiber." Briefly, this book has been written by Mr. Darby in a simple, plain, easily understood way, void of those technicalities which make so many books of this nature such dry reading. We cannot recommend the book too highly to all those who would know more about the fiber that enters so largely into our lives from birth to death. And the value of the book isn't limited to the pages that tell the story of cotton. The dictionary of cotton terms in the back is the best we have ever seen. As a matter of fact, it is more than a dictionary. It is in the nature of an encyclopedia, giving not only the definitions of the terms listed but some description of how the merchandise represented by the terms is made or manufactured, and often even telling the uses of the goods described. Therefore, let us again emphasize that it is with pleasure the Dry Goods Economist offers this work to you. May your pleasure and interest in reading the book be as great as was ours and Mr. Darby's during the many months spent in searching for, assembling and condensing the facts necessary to make up a really worthwhile book on "Cotton - The Universal Fiber."
