In essence, any comprehensive account of the rise and evolution of the iron-founding industry becomes an integral part of the broader narrative of the First Industrial Revolution. By examining the utilization of cast iron by builders and architects spanning from late medieval times to the mid-20th century, the authors have also documented a concise chronicle of British Industry. The introduction sheds light on the early foundations of iron-founding. The subsequent main sections of the book chronicle the ascendancy and expansion of the cast-iron industry, culminating in its gradually increasing significance in architecture from 1650 to 1945. This comprehensive work boasts an impressive array of over 500 illustrations, providing a visual feast for readers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 952g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 280 x 210 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781032366562\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"John Gloag,Derek Bridgwater","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44105168978170,"sku":"9781032366562","price":153.72,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/noImage_1_df43401d-3dd3-4a12-a163-557f539720dc.jpg?v=1668193470","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/a-history-of-cast-iron-in-architecture-9781032366562","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
