Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Social Industrial History of England There is no more gratifying proof of the increased interest now being taken in English history than the attention which is paid by students and teachers to its industrial and social aspects. I have tried to include within the pages of the present work such an outline of the nation's development along social and industrial lines as should, in my opinion, be read by all young students as part of their work in history, and I am not without h0pe that it may also prove acceptable to the ever-increasing number of general readers who are interested in the subject.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to the Industrial and Social History of England This text-book is intended for college and high-school classes. Most of the facts stated in it have become, through the researches and publications of recent years, such commonplace knowledge that a reference to authority in each case has not seemed meces sary. Statements on more doubtful points, and such personal opinions as I have had occasion to express, although not sup ported by references, are based on a somewhat careful study of the sources. To each chapter is subjoined a bibliographical paragraph with the titles of the most important secondary authorities. These works will furnish a fuller account of the matters that have been treated in outline in this book, indicate the original sources, and give opportunity and suggestions for further study. An introductory chapter and a series of narra tive paragraphs prefixed to other chapters are given with the object of correlating matters of economic and social history with other aspects of the life of the nation. My obligation and gratitude are due, as are those of all later students', to the group of scholars who have within our own time laid the foundations of the study of economic history, and whose names and books will be found referred to in the bibliographical paragraphs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Industry in England: Historical Outlines IN 1890 the author published a small book, entitled The Industrial History of England, which met with a some what undeserved success, and has rapidly gone through several large editions. It was described in the first preface as an attempt to relate in a short, concise, and simple form the main outlines of England's economic and industrial history, meant to serve as an introduction to a fuller study of the subject, and as a preliminary sketch which the reader can afterwards, if he wishes, fill in for himself from larger volumes; and it seems to have attained its object of awakening popular interest, to some extent, in a very important branch of national history. But it had all the faults of a brief outline, and contained errors of fact and of expression which no one has regretted more sincerely than the author. It has therefore been my endeavour, in this larger work, to produce a History of Industry of a more satisfactory character, while at the same time retaining the essential features that characterised the earlier effort. As before, I have attempted, as far as possible, in the brief limits of a work like this, to connect economie and ind ustrial questions with social, political, and military movements, since only in some such mutual relation can historical events obtain their full significance.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Industrial History of Modern England The purpose of this volume is to outline the facts and to interpret the Spirit of the economic history of Great Britain in the last hundred and fifty years. The writer believed it to be a useful task to focus within such limits as these a narrative of the social transformation through which the mother country of industrialism has passed since the invention of the steam-engine; and, from this, he was led on to an attempt to characterise the period, and the main current of thought which the play Of economic forces has provoked. With so vast a subject, and great libraries of undigested evidence challenging attention, it seemed beyond h0pe to escape all the pitfalls in the way of such an essay. The recent accumula tions of statistical material, in particular, must be mastered, their essential results obtained, and the contributory detail then eliminated, like the scaffolding when a building is complete, lest the large outlines be obscured. The writer enjoyed, however, beside the interest of the task, the stimulus of contact with industry and business at several points. Trades translated themselves back out Of statistics into terms of flesh and blood. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Social Industrial History of England: 1815-1918 The main purpose of this book is to provide, within as small a compass as possible, the historical background necessary for the study of modern industrial and social questions. An attempt has been made to show the interaction between political and economic development in the course of the nineteenth century by correlating the growth of democratic institutions with the progress of industry. The list of books in Appendix B. will serve as a guide to those who wish to follow up any particular question referred to in the text. Since in dealing with recent history dates have a value for the general reader as a means of relating facts to others known to him, I have introduced them in the narrative and the index. I have also adopted the only consistent method of referring to persons - that is, to use their names without the conventional prefixes. Otherwise, I would have to take the responsibility of deciding every case on its merits. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Industrial State: A Social and Economic History of England The series of books of which the present volume forms one proposes to touch one part only of life the economic. Only' is added as a caution not always superfluous yet of course no one can fail to recognise how fundamental for individuals and for society are the ways in which they provide for themselves their 'revenue or subsistence.' And so the books of this series will range from works which frankly aim at providing the definite knowledge which young men and women will need in commercial occupations to others which set before them the general structure of contemporary economic life and the course of development by which industrial conditions have come to be what they are. And concerning these latter this much must be added. Just about a century ago, Political Economy entered into a phase which, in effect and for the great body of the people, was profoundly pessimistic. It taught, or was understood to teach, that industrial conditions were brought about by 'laws' as independent of individual human aspirations as the law of gravity. That phase has. Passed away. It is true that we see now that human character and therefore social organisation are both the results of age-long evolution, and that there are.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Industrial England in the Middle of the Eighteenth Century Hence it appeared possible that an account of the conditions which led to or accompanied the change from the old mercantile system under which industry was officially controlled and regulated, to the modern method of laissez faire and unrestricted competition, might interest others than members of a Society whose establishment was an indication of the tendency of the time, and whose success has certainly justified the intentions of those who established it. With this idea some consider able additions were made to the original paper, and it is now issued in its present form.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Economic History of England, Vol. 2: The Age of Mercantilism The reception accorded to the first volume has encouraged me to attempt a further instalment. The delay in publication is owing to various causes - the pressure of other duties, the range of the material which I have endeavoured to lay under contribution, and the strain which the task has placed upon health none too robust. That these volumes appear at all, in spite of many difficulties, is due to the oft-repeated wish of some who read the first volume that I should continue this History. Now the continuation is in their hands, I can only express the sincere hope that it may not unduly dis appoint any expectations which they may have formed. These volumes cover the period extending from the accession of Queen Elizabeth to the Industrial Revolution and the Agrarian Revolution of the later eighteenth century. In each section I have chosen what seemed to be the most appropriate point of conclusion. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
