Transport and the Industrial City: Manchester and the Canal Age, 1750–1850
Peter Maw
Focusing on Manchester, this book shows that canals were at the heart of the self-styled Cottonopolis. Not only did canals move the key commodities of Manchester’s industrial revolution –coal, corn, and cotton – but canal banks also provided the key sites for the factories that made Manchester the ‘shock city’ of the early Victorian age. -- .
