This is a high altitude view of the industrial revolution, and for that purpose it's great. It answered a lot of the questions I had about how we went from smithing to factories.
The first portion of the book has a bit of “high school history paper” to it, but it's about what I was looking for.
A good toe in the door of industrial history, and 9t gave me some leads on where to go next.
