Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a detailed account of the trials and failures of Mr. William Lynn, a kindly and optimistic industrialist, as he attempts to implement a progressive and altruistic management vision at his factory in the Scottish Border district. Set against the backdrop of the Industrial Revolution, this book exposes the deep-seated opposition that Lynn encounters from fellow manufacturers and influential figures in his community who are ardently committed to the prevailing laissez-faire capitalist ethos. As the author skillfully illustrates, Lynn's endeavors to create a more just and humane factory environment are repeatedly thwarted by formidable resistance to change and a deep-rooted reluctance to challenge long-held beliefs and practices. This book sheds light on the complexities of industrial relations during a period of profound social and economic transformation, highlighting the challenges faced by individuals who dared to challenge established norms in the pursuit of social progress.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the dramatic election between three very different candidates in the Scottish town of Shawkirk. The frontrunners are Lord Elvan, a young nobleman with no political experience; Bailie Trotter, a teetotal, Independent-Radical incumbent; and Ardin, a shadowy, wealthy newcomer with an alleged history of unscrupulous dealings. The narrative delves into the political strategies and campaign promises of the contenders, accompanied by lively depictions of the passionate and often humorous speeches to rally support. Through the lens of this election, the author explores themes of class struggle, the rise of democracy, and the elusive nature of integrity and authenticity in politics.
