Synopsis
This book examines the enormous social and economic transformation in the United Kingdom from 1764 to 1914. By the 1800s, the British Empire had become the world’s leading industrial power. The author highlights the drastic changes this transformation brought upon British society, from the rise of an industrial, urban working class to the decline of rural life, and the resulting social and political unrest. The text also covers the intellectual, political, and economic movements that shaped modern Britain, from the introduction of steam power to the rise of trade unions. The book offers a comprehensive, readable overview of this tumultuous period in British history, when the country laid the foundation for its modern identity as a global economic and political power.
