This work offers all the articles published by the late Dr A.H. Shorter. They concern his work on British papermaking, offering the history of many paper mills in Britain after 1800.
The late A.H. Shorter is widely acknowledged for his pioneering work on the history of the British paper-making industry, and his books continue to provide the basis for further research. The present volume brings together all his many articles, hitherto scattered across a variety of specialist publications and often virtually inaccessible. In these studies Dr Shorter tackled the subject with a broader scope than was possible in his books; in particular, they cover the period after 1800, tracing the changing geographical pattern of the industry. They also contain a wealth of detailed information on papermaking across Britain, notably in the counties of southwest England, that is impossible to find elsewhere, and is now made accessible through the comprehensive indexes to the volume. Le regretté A. H. Shorter est largement reconnu pour ses travaux originaux sur lhistoire de lindustrie papetière britannique et ses ouvrages continuent dêtre à la base de toutes recherches supplémentaires. Le présent volume rassemble la totalité de ses nombreux articles, jusquà présent dispersés sur tout un éventail de publications spécialisées et bien trop souvent inaccessibles. Au travers de ces études, lauteur sattaque au sujet sur un rayon plus large que cela navait été possible dans ses livres; couvrant en particulier la période après 1800 et traçant la structure géographique de lindustrie. Le recueil contient aussi abondance dinformations détaillées sur la fabrication du papier partout en Grande-Bretagne, notamment dans les contés du sud-ouest de lAngleterre, et quil est impossible de trouver ailleurs.
