Landmarks in English Industrial History ... Revised and extended by T H Marshall

Notes:

First published 1899. Many subsequent reprints. Revised 1924 by T H Marshall through, inter alia, addition of three chapters. An account 'to bring before the reader the salient features of England's industrial and commercial past' from early times - 'I make no claim to originality so far as the matter of this book goes yet as each historical event is important, not only by itself but also in its bearing on other events, I have tried by a new arrangement to bring out these connections more fully. I have chosen what appears to me to be the chief landmark of each age and grouped round it the events which led up to it and the consequences which came from them'
