In Manufacturing Montreal Robert Lewis provides a detailed historical geographic account of a major North American citys industrial landscape from the beginnings of industrialization to the Great Depression Challenging the traditional view that urban expansion due to industrial decentralization is a twentiethcentury phenomenon Lewis demonstrates that the process of industrial decentralization has been ongoing since the 1850s Lewiss overall thesis is that the economic and social imperatives underlying industrial capitalism periodically reshaped the manufacturing geography of Montreal as it did in many other North American cities Time and again the move of factories to the urban fringe shaped the social geography of the city by creating workingclass residential neighborhoods A particular strength of the book is its detailed examination of the role that utilities transportation technological change investment political control of land use and labor markets had in the manufacturing of Montreals factory districts

A rich and ambitious history reframing the Industrial Revolution the expansion of the British empire and the emergence of industrial capitalism as inextricable from the gun trade From the seventeenth to the nineteenth century the industrial revolution transformed Britain from an agricultural and artisanal economy to one dominated by industry ushering in unprecedented growth in technology and trade and putting the country at the center of the global economy But the commonly accepted story of the industrial revolution anchored in images of cotton factories and steam engines invented by unfettered geniuses overlooks the true root of economic and industrial expansion the lucrative military contracting that enabled the countrys nearconstant state of war in the eighteenth century Demand for the guns and other war materiel that allowed British armies navies mercenaries traders settlers and adventurers to conquer an immense share of the globe in turn drove the rise of innumerable associated industries from metalworking to banking Bookended by the Glorious Revolution of 1688 and the end of the Napoleonic Wars in 1815 this book traces the social and material life of British guns over a century of nearconstant war and violence at home and abroad Priya Satia develops this story through the life of prominent British gunmaker and Quaker Samuel Galton Jr who was asked to answer for the moral defensibility of producing guns as new uses like anonymous mass violence rose Reconciling the pacifist tenet of his faith with his perception of the economic realities of the time Galton argued that war was driving the industrial economy making everyone inescapably complicit in it Through his story Satia illuminates Britains emergence as a global superpower the roots of the governments role in economic development and the origins of our own eras debates over gun control and military contracting
