The book is a republication of Accrington Guardian articles that Benjamin Hargreaves wrote in 1879 and 1880. He was an old man reminiscing on his life at that point, but there are lots of detail regarding the processes, associations with other businesses, and some of the people employed. It is quite heavy reading in places, but gives a good insight if you stick with it.
Oh - and shop around. The copyright has expired so they charge what they want. Normally cheaper on
Abe Books.
