Book Description
1918. The industrial revolution is today sweeping irresistibly through South America and the Orient. Simple home industries are being supplanted by complex community industries. Grandmother's hand loom has gone to the attic. A thousand power looms whirr in the mill. Home life everywhere is changing as the world's homes are being forced to yield upon their youth to satisfy the demands of factories, shops and mines. This volume discusses this subject and how it changed the face of life throughout the ancient races.
