“This book is a concise historical insight into how the British economy developed and expanded from the Industrial revolution to date. Maurice also manages to portray the important political decisions mentioned in his book and illustrate the importance of such decisions on British society and the economy. It is an exquisite joy to read, and provides the reader with so much knowledge.” – Mark Attard Montalto B.A. LL.D., M.Jur (Eur.Law)
“There is a tendency among historians to downplay the role that economics play in historical events and their evolution. Yet, economic factors have been the catalyst sustaining revolutions. This study by Professor Mullard is, therefore, of huge importance because it demonstrates the interlink between economics and politics as it traces British and American history since the Industrial Revolution.” – Godfrey A. Pirotta, Professor of Government and Policy Studies, Chairperson Mediterranean Diplomatic Academy, University of Malta, Malta
“I have now had a chance to read through a couple of the chapters, Chapter 2 The Industrial Revolution in Britain and Chapter 3 Economics and Politics in 19th Century America. There is some really interesting material here, great breadth and the individual stories are compelling. The material in the chapters is very broad…covering a huge range which is very impressive.” – Andrew Gamble, Professor of Politics, University of Sheffield, Professor Emeritus University of Cambridge
