Neuware - 'Samuel Oldknow and the Arkwrights' is a seminal study of the Industrial Revolution, focusing on the transformative period of cotton manufacture in late eighteenth-century England. Written by the esteemed economic historian George Unwin, the work provides a detailed examination of the business partnerships and industrial innovations that shaped the modern factory system. Through the lens of Samuel Oldknow's career and his associations with the Arkwright family, the book explores the transition from domestic production to large-scale mechanized industry.The narrative delves into the complexities of trade, credit, and labor management during a time of rapid social and technological change. It highlights Oldknow's ventures in muslin production and his ambitious projects at Mellor, alongside the pioneering machinery and influence of Richard Arkwright. By utilizing original records and business correspondence, Unwin offers an authoritative account of the economic forces and individual enterprise that fueled Great Britain's industrial dominance.
