Award Winner of Best History/Tradition category of 2023 East Anglian Book Awards. This is the first comprehensive account of Norwich’s textile industry in the second half of the eighteenth century and the early part of the nineteenth century.
The book covers the sourcing of wool, the production in East Anglia and in Ireland of worsted yarn, the processes in Norwich and Norfolk involved in turning this yarn into highly desirable and beautiful stuffs, and the trading and marketing of these fabrics in Europe, the Americas, China and elsewhere.
"a wonderfully erudite, comprehensive, well-illustrated and beautifully produced volume – everything we’d had hoped for and so much more!"
