The Muspratt family form a fascinating dynasty in the history of
British commerce and manufacturing. Associated principally with the
development of the chemical industry in Liverpool - James Muspratt
(1793-1884) was the first person to make alkali on a large scale
using the Leblanc Process - the three generations of the family
also contributed to wider Victorian and Edwardian culture through
their interests in politics, education (founding the Liverpool
College of Chemistry in 1848), art, literature and theatre. This is
the first study to present the history of the Muspratts as a family
group and to consider the entrepreneurial spirit they brought to
chemical manufacture in Britain and to their many other ventures.
