 The
Industrial Revolution is not that well-represented online. While the
resources listed here only point to avenues of further research on the
Internet, the student interested in the vast changes that the Industrial
Revolution of the 18th century set in motion would do well to consult
their library for further information. I have listed a bibliography for
those works which have been of enormous help in my own research.
The excellent site at Spartacus
Educational has an enormous range of resources -- here you will find
pages on John Kay,
Richard
Arkwright, carding,
the power loom,
the flying
shuttle and a general resource on the textile
industry. Rochester has an etext version Thomas H. Marshall's 1925
biography of James
Watt. See also an Overview
of the Industrial Revolution as well as a lesson plan on the Plight of Women's Work in the Early Industrial Revolution in England and Wales.
Paul Halsall has put together an excellent set of Industrial
Revolution Links.
