Description:

This book is the first major study of the final phase in the history of the Lancashire cotton industry, from 1945 until the industry's absorption by the man-made fiber producers during the 1960s. Singleton's main conclusion is that the industry's collapse was inevitable in the absence of protectionist policies, and that the economy would have benefitted from the freeing of resources which an even faster decline of cotton could have effected.
