Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Linen Trade, Ancient and Modern IT is somewhat surprising that the history of so ancient and important a manufacture as that of Linen, and of the commerce connected with it, has not long before this time been placed in a comprehensive form before the world. It is one of the axioms of Political Economy, as it is held at the present day, that de mand creates supply, but, up to the present time, that has not in this instance been verified. The feeling that such a work was needed has often been expressed, both by the general public and by those immediately concerned in the Trade, but without, until now, having the effect of bringing forth one. Perhaps that is to be accounted for by our system of division of labour. Books are generally written by literary and scientific men but probably very few of either of those classes possess anything like that practical knowledge of the details of the subject, which it would be difficult to obtain without having been actually engaged in the business. That is the only way in which it appears pos sible to explain the fact that a generally acknowledged want has been suffered to remain unsatisfied, and that it has been left for me to attempt the performance of a task which should have been committed to abler hands. But whatever the deficiencies I may be sensible of with respect to mere literary qualifications, I have the advantage of an intimate practical acquaintance with the Linen Trade in all its branches - the result of having been for many years engaged in it and I may venture to hope that the following pages will be found to contain evidence that I have industriously endeavoured to collect information from all acces sible sources. Conscious that that is the case, I may ask that faults of style, of which I fear there are many, may be indul gently regarded, and that the Book may be received and judged of, not as a literary effort, but as an attempt to compile a full and reliable record of the rise, progress, and present condition of an important department of manufacture and commerce.

Download or read book A History Of Textiles written by Kax Wilson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-11-28 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1979, this volume acts as a reference for the history textiles. It asks questions on the effect of technology on textiles, how did particular historical periods and locations expand or limit the possibilities for the manufacture of fabrics and how the textile history related to politics and economics, sociology and psychology, art and engineering, anthropology and archaeology, chemistry and physics. Addressing these questions, the author surveys the development of the technical components of fabrics and discusses the textiles of selected places and times. She uses prose, drawings and more than 130 photographs to show how each era of textile production reflects its age. This book is designed to serve as a college text and as a reference work for museum researchers. With sections including illustrations and diagrams; key terminology; spinning wool; spinning and raw materials; single ply and cord and fabric construction.
