The Economic History of Britain since 1700: Volume 2: 1860 to the 1970's

This is the second volume of Cambridge's masterful survey of British economic transformation—covering the Victorian boom, industrialisation's peak, two world wars, and the postwar reconstruction that shaped modern Britain. Dense with data yet surprisingly readable, it traces everything from railway expansion to trade union power. Perfect for economic history students, policy enthusiasts, or anyone who wants to understand how Britain's economy really evolved during its most dramatic century.
