Format:Paperback
This book is written like Dr King lectures - He covers every angle and resources to enable the reader to look at the broad picture. There is always a however in the chapter which helps you to look at other historians and views. Very helpful for all studying this subject and a great book to use. Enjoy!

Speaking as an interested student in the field, I would suggest that Dr King's enlightened text is perhaps the greatest work on the Industrial Revolution to have been published. If you are an undergraduate, I would suggest that you run, not walk, to the nearest bookshop (or use your parents' credit card and buy online) to buy a copy for yourself!
