When Luouis Daguerre patented the first photographic process in 1839, the time was ripe to capture aspects of the momentous changes occurring in Victorian lifestyle - particularly the dramatic developments in industry. This unusual and interesting book depicts, in photographs old and new, Britain's developing industrial life from prehistoric flint mines to 20th century power plants - and offers a unique insight into the historic use of the camera as a recording tool, especially in the hands of noted masters such as Henry taunt and Eric de Mare. Cooper's Marmalade Factory, the Witney Blanket Mill, Fakenham Gasworks and the M4 are just some of the industrial monuments described in ths fascinating look at an aspect of Britain's life - sometimes grim, sometimes startlingly beautiful - that is usually submerged amongst guides to more conventional beauties.
