This book, first published in 1929, analyses the changes to
Birmingham and the Black Country in the nineteenth century. The
area underwent quite a transformation: many of the older trades
were decaying, while at the same time a number of new manufactures
were making a remarkable rapid advance. As a result of this, the
industrial structure of the area in the early twentieth century was
made up of very different constituents from those of which is was
composed sixty years previously. This is an invaluable study of a
remarkable industrial transformation that was carried out in a very
short space of time.
