Zusatztext This three-part study provides the definitive story of the steel industry in Sheffield from the era of Huntsman's crucible to the Iraqi 'Supergun'. The author has produced a fine portrait of this aspect of the industrial history of Sheffield ... he provides a detailed record and analysis of the changes the city has experienced. However, this is not just a local study but includes wider discussion of some of the more general reasons for British industrial decline. Its breadth of coverage and detail make it likely to remain the standard reference work on the industry in Sheffield for many decades to come. Klappentext Why has British steelmaking declined? This, the first single-volume study of Sheffield steel, cutlery, and tools, charts the history of Sheffield steel from its origins in the 1740s to 1993, when it was no longer the major employer in the region. Drawing upon company records, contemporary documentation, and interviews with many businessmen and technologists, it provides an indispensable chronology and also relates business strategies to current debates aboutentrepreneurship and UK decline. Zusammenfassung Focuses on the historical evolution of firms, and industry leaders and their strategies. Sheffield's experience is then related to current historical and economic debates about industrial structure, entrepreneurship and UK decline.
