This title, first published in 1984, focuses primarily on the early Industrial Revolution in the Stockport district. As the Industrial Revolution in England was the first instance of successful industrialisation, it can provide many social and economic lessons and also furnish essential evidence for continuing debate over ideology and theory.

This title, first published in 1984, focuses primarily on the early Industrial Revolution (c. 1780-1820) in the Stockport district. As the Industrial Revolution in England was the first instance of successful industrialisation, it can still provide many social and economic lessons and also furnish essential evidence for continuing debate over ideology and theory. Therefore, this title will be of interest to students of both history and economics.
