| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | "Industrial Biography: Iron Workers and Tool Makers" by Samuel Smiles is a historical account written in the mid-19th century that celebrates the contributions of notable figures in the ironworking and tool-making industries. The book seeks to highlight the often-overlooked impact that these industrial workers have had on society, emphasizing their role in shaping modern industry and civilization. The opening of the text revolves around the fundamental importance of iron in the development of civilization, describing its revolutionary effect on early human societies. Smiles references historical anecdotes, such as Captain Cook’s experiences with South Sea Islanders, to illustrate the immense value placed on iron tools compared to primitive alternatives. He discusses the progression through various "ages" of human culture—the Stone, Bronze, and Iron ages—and sets the stage for an exploration of significant figures in the field of ironworking, hinting at a broader narrative that will include profiles of famous inventors and mechanics who transformed industries and improved everyday life.
