I lost my original copy and Mark Williams presentation is excellent. I'm guessing they must be in short supply as the price is on the high side.

Excellent series on the development of technology in Britain around the time of the the industrial revolution. Williams is enthusiastic and obviously deeply interested in the subject matter. and that makes it very engaging. Probably best suited to industrial archaeology nerds like myself, but informative and interesting for most people.

This series first shown on Discovery really should have been available to a much wider audience. The Industrial Revolution is what made us what we are today and Mark Williams goes about telling us the story in his own inimitable way. The series is well researched and gives good reliable inforamtion. But it is no way dull, boring or unwatchable. Mark's humour fits the story well and his infectious enthusiasm for the subject is hard to escape. The photography is good and he manages to find a good few boats and other means of historic transport to travel around on telling the story. Roll on the second series being available on DVD I say.
I decided to buy it after having viewed one or two of the programmes in the series on Sky TV. I am interested in the Industrial Revolution and this series presents the developments that occurred during that period and the way technology developed in a manner that is both educational and entertaining. The D.V.D is very good value for money, the subjects are well researched and Mark Williams makes an excellent presenter. Recommended for people with either a casual or serious interest in Industrial Heritage.
