1795 Industrial Revolution Inventions Machines Irrigation Wool Loom Illustrated

Shortly after the Industrial Revolution, people were hungry for knowledge of new industries and Wilkie, editor of ‘Repertory,’ gave them what they desired. This book’s popularity spread all over United States and Europe in a very quick fashion.
