Does anyone know of any good books about the Industrial Revolution? Preferably one that can be purchased on the Kindle store.

John Charity Spring posted:Eric Hobsbawm's Age of Revolution: 1789-1848 is a history of what he calls the 'twin revolutions' - France's political one, and Britain's industrial one. Very readable and easy to follow, although if you're looking for a history of specific events it's not much use. It kind of presumes a basic familiarity of the period and talks more about causes and effects. It's on Kindle, too, and the Kindle version is pretty much fine except for the very few maps that the book contains (they're basically unreadable). Mr Crucial posted:The Most Powerful Idea In The World Thanks guys! I'll check both of these out.
