"[A]n illuminating narrative that shows, among much else, what happened when Yankee ingenuity met the Industrial Revolution.... Post-Civil War industrialization had an important and largely overlooked predecessor in the first decades of the 19th century. It is a story worth telling, and Mr. Morris tells it well." -The Wall Street Journal

Paperback. Zustand: Good. In the first few decades of the nineteenth century, America went from being a largely rural economy, with little internal transportation infrastructure, to a fledgling industrial powerhouse- setting the stage for the vast fortunes that would be made in the golden age of American capitalism. In The Dawn of Innovation, Charles R. Morris vividly brings to life a time when three stupendous American innovations- universal male suffrage, the shift of political power from elites to the middle classes, and a broad commitment to mechanized mass-production- gave rise to the world's first democratic, middle-class, mass-consumption society, a shining beacon to nations and peoples ever since. Behind that ideal were the machines, the men, and the trading and transportation networks that created a new, world-class economic power. Artikel-Nr. 00099082798
