The Industrial Revolutionaries: The Making of the Modern World 1776-1914Gavin Weightman's sweeping history of the industrial revolution shows how, in less than one hundred and fifty years, an unlikely band of scientists, spies, entrepreneurs, and political refugees took a world made of wood and powered by animals, wind, and water, and made it into something entirely new, forged of steel and iron, and powered by steam and fossil fuels. Weightman weaves together the dramatic stories of giants such as Edison, Watt, Wedgwood,

Gavin Weightman's sweeping history of the industrial revolution shows how, in less than one hundred and fifty years, an unlikely band of scientists, spies, entrepreneurs, and political refugees took a world made of wood and powered by animals, wind, and water, and made it into something entirely new, forged of steel and iron, and powered by steam and fossil fuels. Weightman weaves together the dramatic stories of giants such as Edison, Watt, Wedgwood, and Daimler, with lesser-known or entirely forgotten characters, including a group of Japanese samurai who risked their lives to learn the secrets of the West, and John "Iron Mad" Wilkinson, who didn't let war between England and France stop him from plumbing Paris. Distilling complex technical achievements, outlandish figures, and daring adventures into an accessible narrative that spans the globe as industrialism spreads, The Industrial Revolutionaries is a remarkable work of original, engaging history.

Nice quality bag, very stylish
Color: Mk Signature/Vanilla/Acorn, Color: Mk Signature/Vanilla/Acorn
This Michael Kors small duffle crossbody is a cute play on a travel bag. From the adjustable strap that mimics a heavy duty duffle bag to the outer pocket that can hold little what-nots, and the roomy innermost part of it, this bag is very stylish. The material is heavy duty, yet high quality. It doesn’t feel like it is cheap or so delicate it won’t last long with care, or scuff or scratch easily. The material, canvas, hardware, handles, and straps are high quality, and very rich in color. The bag has enough storage capacity allows for my phone,, cosmetics, keys, wallet, and AirPods, with some room left over. The zippers don’t catch or appear they will break easily. I’ve been able easily open and close the bag and pockets with no issues. Overall, this bag is great quality and very stylish. The color goes great with neutral tones and all black. I enjoy carrying with while dressed up or down. Very happy with this bag.
