Industrialization Case Study: Manchester INDUSTRIALIZATION CHANGES LIFE (Pages 289–291) 

How did industrialization change people’s ways of life? Industrialization brought many changes to the British people. More people could use coal to heat their homes, eat better food, and wear better clothing. Another change was urbanization— city building and the movement of people to cities. For centuries, most people in Europe had lived in the country. By the 1800s, more and more people lived in cities, where they had come to find jobs. Living conditions were bad in crowded cities. Many people could not find good housing, schools, or police protection. Filth, garbage, and sickness were part of life in the slums. A person in a city could expect to live 17 years. In the countryside, a person could expect to live 38 years. Working conditions were also bad. The average worker spent 14 hours a day on the job, 6 days a week. Many workers were killed or seriously injured in accidents.

CLASS TENSIONS GROW; POSITIVE EFFECTS OF THE INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION (Pages 291–292) Who were the members of the middle class? Some people’s lives were improved in the new economy. The Industrial Revolution created new wealth for the middle class, which included skilled workers, professionals, business people, and wealthy farmers. People in the middle class enjoyed comfortable lives in pleasant homes. This class began to grow in size. Some people grew wealthier than the nobles who had been in control for many centuries.

THE MILLS OF MANCHESTER (Pages 292–294) What changes occurred in Manchester? The English city of Manchester is a good example of how industrialization changed society. Rapid growth made the city crowded and filthy. The factory owners risked their money and worked long hours to make their businesses grow. In return, they enjoyed huge profits and built huge houses. The workers also worked long hours, but had few benefits. Many of these workers were children, some only six years old. The British government did not limit the use of children as workers until 1819. The large amount of industry in Manchester caused environmental problems. Coal smoke and cloth dyes from the factories polluted the air and water. Yet, Manchester also created many jobs, a variety of consumer goods, and great wealth.

Section 45 review notes 

The Birth of Rail Roads

In 1829, George Stephenson

built a steam engine that could

speed along a track at an astounding

24 miles per hour! Anyways it was

a glimpse of things to come. The

railroad built with iron, steel and fueled by coal is

the symbol of the Industrial Revolution. Goods were shipped across England

quickly. Food spoilage was reduced. Soon steamships were carrying English

finished cloth to all ports of trade around the world.

Urbanization in England

Life for English peasants changed quite a bit as well. Increased food production

led to increased population. Peasants migrated to growing cities of Manchester,

Liverpool and Leeds. They came for jobs since new machines were replacing

manual labor on the farms. Rural farmers moved into crowded brick row-

houses and took jobs in new factories. These bricks were made in clay ovens,

fired by coal! Coal had to do with everything!

By the start of the 19th century,

the urban working class of England

was growing rapidly. They lived

hand to mouth and worked up to 16

hours a day. Children as young as six

years old worked in dangerous textile mills

and coal mines. Rather than attend a school and

learn to read, they learned to separate rocks from coal and repair threads

from Spinning Jenny machines.

Now let’s get this. It was the Bourgeoisie; the business owner; the educated

middle class that continually invented better faster machines. They drove the In- dustrial Revolution. It was in the entrepreneurial spirit; to make a buck; to make

a profit. All English society was like an engine and the goal was to produce and

raise the standard of living mostly for business owners. The ever growing num- ber of English factory workers went on earning a wage of mere subsistence.

Industrialization Spreads to Mainland Europe

Soon, the industrial spirit spread to Germany, Belgium and France. Led by

textile, coal and steel production, life for urban factory workers in these countries

was just as bad as those in England. They worked miserably long hours. They

had to compete with child labor. Children demanded even lower wages. Almost

all work was dangerous.
