Synopsis:

Early Industrial Britain

Review:  'Evans's elegant and fluent treatment of the topics within his chosen period is often quite superb.' Times Educational Supplement, "This text continues to serve undergraduate students well and compares favourably with any survey of this kind. Working in a period dense with complexity and contradiction, Evans has conveyed a coherent and lucid account of the times. To this he has added a blend of interpretation leavened by recent scholarship that he treats both fairly and yet critically. All of this is couched in a prose that sparkles with deft turns of phrase and provocative insights. This is a welcome addition to bookshelves." Albion
