An Economic and Social History of Britain, 1066-1939 is a comprehensive book that explores the economic and social changes that occurred in Britain over the course of nearly 900 years. Written by Michael Walter Flinn, the book covers a wide range of topics, including the feudal system, the Industrial Revolution, the rise of capitalism, and the impact of World War I and World War II on British society.The book begins with an overview of the Norman Conquest in 1066 and the establishment of the feudal system in England. It then moves on to examine the growth of trade and commerce during the Middle Ages, the rise of the Tudor monarchy, and the English Civil War.The bulk of the book is dedicated to the Industrial Revolution, which transformed Britain from an agrarian society into an industrial powerhouse. Flinn explores the various factors that contributed to this transformation, including new technologies, changes in agriculture, and the growth of urbanization.The book also examines the rise of capitalism and the growth of the British Empire, as well as the impact of World War I and World War II on British society. Throughout the book, Flinn pays particular attention to the social and economic consequences of these changes, including the growth of inequality, the rise of working-class movements, and the emergence of new forms of political and social organization.Overall, An Economic and Social History of Britain, 1066-1939 provides a detailed and insightful account of the economic and social changes that shaped Britain over the course of nearly a millennium.
