Download or read book The Industrial Evolution of the United States Classic Reprint written by Carroll D. Wright and published by . This book was released on 2015-06-30 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Industrial Evolution of the United States The plan of this work comprehends a plain, simple statement of the leading facts attending the planting and development of the mechanical industries of our country. No attempt has been made to discuss some of the influences which have affected their development, such as the varied effects of tariff legislation, financial experiments, foreign policies, or economic conditions and principles. To have entered upon an ambitious field involving such important elements in the evolution of industry would have led to a work much more extensive than that contemplated. The results have been given, however, in such concise form as to present the general story of our industrial growth and the logical effects of such growth as shown in the various phases of the labor movement. Modern industry brought this movement as it is now understood into existence, and its influence upon future development will be important. As invention has been the vitalizing principle of the factory system, it has been deemed wise to incorporate chapters on the influence of machinery. These chapters, the last three, are largely from addresses which I have made, and the line of thought followed in them is the result of extended observation and the wide study of facts, a study which has led me to change the conclusions reached by the earlier consideration of what I now see was a limited range of experiences.

Download or read book The Industrial Revolution Classic Reprint written by Charles Beard and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-11 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Industrial Revolution The classes that labour with their hands for weekly wages have now entrusted to them much of the power possessed by the Government of this country. The future of this country, and the parts of the world dependent on it must be largely settled by the use, wise or foolish, good or evil, they will be making of this power. Their own future depends on it. If they refuse to think, if they choose to listen to fools' advice, if they do not take advantage of the opportunities they have for making themselves better, morally, physically, and intellectually, the world will pass them by speedily and inevitably. Goodwill is no excuse in face of facts only good deeds will count. Knowledge and the will to use it, and the courage and perseverance required to use it rightly, these are the necessities of progress and of well-being of any kind. Ignorance that may be felt (but that may by honest effort be destroyed) is the cause of many more of our troubles than we like to admit. Science, not Creed, is the Deliverer, if we will only take the trouble to follow it. There will be plenty of mistakes on the way, but if a man means to learn by his former mistakes, he nearly always has the chance, and the advance, though slow, will be continuous.

Download or read book Dynasty written by Max Sklovsky and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-02-17 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dynasty: A Novel of Chicago's Industrial Evolution The crudities of the Yards extended far beyond the borders of the area itself, however. The south branch of the Chicago River was constantly coated with a scum of effluvium from the slaughterhouses. As the river flowed into Lake Michi gan alongside and above the Loop, the odors rose and spread out over the city, mingling with those of Other refuse which drained into the river. But everywhere in the city which was bounding back from the devastation of the Great Fire, there was opportunity for men and for investment. The town was crying out for workers, builders, dreamers - men who dreamed big. It was a place for the amassing of personal fortunes, dynasties, great industrial developments. The city was growing too fast to keep up with itself, and method was less important than results. The by-products of this frantic growth were both wealth and power, and poverty, with little civic concern for the fall out and little understanding of the cosmic picture and the complex interrelations of human beings caught in the turning wheel of industrial development. More, more, bigger, bigger, sang the rails over which the mighty locomotives sped to the citywith their freight loads of grain, livestock, Steel and coal. More, more, bigger, bigger. But, without knowing it, Chicago was also moving toward maturity, toward a recognition of better as well as bigger.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Education and Industrial Evolution During the nineteenth century, greater changes in manufacture, commerce and agriculture took place than during the preceding ten centuries. The military basis of civilization was hastily swept away, and replaced by industrial foundations. New classes of people and new economic interests arose, and old ones disappeared or sank in relative importance. Manners, customs and ways of living were trans formed. The ends of the earth were drawn into vital contact; the continents were moored side by side. In a word, social and industrial life was revolutionized. The qualities which count for na tional success and grandeur are no longer purely warlike or artistic; industrial capacity and skill now become absolutely essential. The warrior bows.

Download or read book Iron and Steel in the Industrial Revolution Classic Reprint written by Thomas Southcliffe Ashton and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-29 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Iron and Steel in the Industrial Revolution This contribution to the history of the English Iron Industry is the product of the leisure, not of an historian, but of one engaged in teaching economic theory. The materials on which it is based were collected when I was on the staff first of the University of Sheffield, then of the University of Birmingham; but most of the actual writing has been done in Manchester. A generation ago writers on modern economic history found their principal quarry in blue-books, Parliamentary Journals, and other Government records. Hence arose not only an over-estimate of the part played by the State in economic development, but also, perhaps, an unduly gloomy View of former industrial society; for it -is the Pathology, rather than the Physiology, of social life that forms the subject of commissions of enquiry, of Home Office reports, and of parliamentary debates. Within the last few years a small group of scholars has attempted to re-write the economic history of the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, using as a basis the surviving records of business undertakings. The University of Manchester already possesses the complete documents of four such concerns, and it is hoped that proprietors of long-established businesses will add to the collection. By so doing they will help to a truer View of the past, and therefore to a clearer understanding of the present. They need have no misgivings Concerning publicity. Houses that have stood the test of a century were not built, shamefully, on sand their foundations will bear scrutiny.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Evolution of Industry IN this book I have attempted to meet the request of the Editors that I should describe the recent changes which have given us the present condition of the working classes. It has only been possible to give an outline of events, and to suggest the principles which seem to me to be involved. In view of the fact that a volume has already been con tributed to this series on Socialism, I have stopped on the threshold of that subject, and have tried to make this study a way of ap proach to that larger question. I shall be glad if I have succeeded in giving a survey of the field which will incite to further exploration, and help to explain the unrest which is so great a feature of this critical time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Imperial Germany and the Industrial Revolution Among men who have no articulate acquaintance with matters of ethnology it is usual to speak of the several nations of Europe as district races. Even official documents and painstaking historians are not free from this confusion of ideas. In this colloquial use "race" is not conceived to be precisely synonymous with "nation," nor with "people;" although it would often be a difficult matter to make out from the context just what distinctive meaning is attached to one or another of these terms. They are used loosely and suggestively, and for may purposes they may doubtless be so used without compromise of confusion to the arguments; so that it might seem the part of reason to take them as they come, with allowance for such margin of error as necessarily attaches to their colloquial use, and without taking thought of a closer definition or a more discriminate use than what contents those who so find these terms convenient for use in all their colloquial ambiguity.
