Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyses the sources of finance used in the Yorkshire wool textile sector during a period of rapid expansion, considerable technical change and the gradual transformation from domestic and workshop production to factory industry. Although there has been much recent debate about capital investment proportions and their sources nationally, there is no other study of a region or section capable of testing various hypotheses current in the general literature of the British 'industrial revolution'. How was capital amassed in proto-industry? How important were merchants in building factories? What role did landowners and the local banking sector? What influence did trade credit and fluctuations in trade credit have on the expansion of productive enterprise? How important was reinvestment and what determined both profitability and the extent to which it was ploughed back into business? The answers to these questions have value for all students of the industrialisation process, whilst the detailed material on Yorkshire is of interest for local study and provides a model of the questions which could be asked in other similar regional studies of the future.

This book was released on 1987 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyses the progress and performance of the wool textile industry, both nationally and in various regions where it was concentrated. It examines the development of the industry in terms of its structure and location, its transition to factory production, its use of raw materials and new technology, and the variety of its finished products. It considers the competitive position of the industry in home and foreign markets both in the halcyon days of trade expansion and in the changing economic circumstances after 1870. The authors review the differing fortunes of woollens and worsteds, the rise of low woollens and the decline of some of the traditional wool textile manufacturing districts. Whilst highlighting the difficulties encountered by the industry, the overall conclusion of the volume is an optimistic one in terms of entrepreneurial performance and adaptability in production methods and to market circumstances.It is the first overall study of the economic history of the industry nationally from the Industrial Revolution to the First World War. The volume will be of great interest to economic historians and to all interested in the history of technology, the development of design, costume and fashion and to local historians in those many parts of Britain where wool textile manufacture was carried out.
