This third impression of the second edition was originally
published in 1963, and in this classic study George Unwin attempted
for the first time to bridge the gap between the economic
development of medieval England and the England of the eighteenth
century with a detailed study of the evolution and growth of the
London Livery Companies and the early craft guilds. He discusses at
length the various amalgamations of the crafts, the early
joint-stock enterprises, protectionism under James I, and the early
development of the Trade Union Movement. In his introduction,
Professor T. S. Ashton shows the importance of this pioneer study
in the light of the industrial development today of the newly
emergent nations.
