Excerpt from Woollen Spinning: A Text-Book for Students in Technical Schools and Colleges, and for Skillful Practical Men in Woollen Mills
A text-book on Woollen Spinning suitable for students in Technical Schools and Colleges, as well as for skilful practical men in our woollen mills, has long been much wanted 3 but the retrograde position into which the woollen industry has drifted during late years accentuates this long-felt want, and calls for a text-book that shall restate the principles that underlie the earlier processes of the manufacture.
Woollen goods were two-thirds of England's exports at the beginning of the eighteenth century, and down to the middle of the century it was the leading industry, but it was about this time outstripped in the race by the cotton manufacture. The woollen, however, made good progress during the latter half of the last century, and held its position fairly well up to the middle of the present century, since which it has fallen very considerably into the rear.
