Empire History and Geography, by J. A. WILLIAMSON and ERNEST YOUNG

on 2LO London and 5XX Daventry

View in Radio Times

THIS third broadcast completes the treatment in this series of the British Isles ; next week Mr. Williamson and Mr. Ernest Young will go on to deal with the West Indies. This afternoon's talks will be devoted to the Industrial Revolution of the eighteenth century, and its geographical counterpart-the rise of the North and centre of Britain from being a comparatively barren and impoverished wilderness to their present position as the concentration area of the country's large-scale industry.
