Religion and Society in a Cotswold Vale by Albion M. Urdank

Nailsworth, Gloucestershire, 1780-1865

Religion and Society in a Cotswold Vale

During the English Industrial Revolution, the Vale of Nailsworth was a rural-industrial settlement and a center of evangelical Nonconformity. Why did the transition to the factory system bring deindustrialization and social decline rather than long-term advancement? Albion Urdank investigates the modernization of Nailsworth from many perspectives, revealing the experience and the "mentalité " of ordinary people in their ecological, economic, and social environments. His innovative approach, in the tradition of the Leicester and "Annales" schools, contributes to the historical literature on popular religion, secularization, local history, and European industrialization, and will appeal to a wide spectrum of interdisciplinary interests.
