The Industrial Revolution

104 pp. | Lucent | December, 2008 | Library ISBN 978-1-4205-0066-0 $32.45
(4) YA American History series. Industrial traces changes in American life due to industrialization, beginning with eighteenth-century England before focusing on America. Progressive addresses the political, economic, and social reform of the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries. The straightforward writing makes the information accessible, but the two-column layout results in a sterile, textbooklike feel. Photographs and illustrations help break up the texts. Reading list, timeline, websites. Glos., ind. Review covers these American History titles: The Industrial Revolution and The Progressive Era.
