{"product_id":"english-woollen-industry-c-1200-c-1560","title":"English Woollen Industry, c.1200-c.1560","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is the first book to describe the early English woollens’ industry and its dominance of the trade in quality cloth across Europe by the mid-sixteenth century, as English trade was transformed from dependence on wool to value-added woollen cloth. It compares English and continental draperies, weighs the advantages of urban and rural production, and examines both quality and coarse cloths. Rural clothiers who made broadcloth to a consistent high quality at relatively low cost, Merchant Adventurers who enjoyed a trade monopoly with the Low Countries, and Antwerp’s artisans who finished cloth to customers’ needs all eventually combined to make English woollens unbeatable on the continent.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54232559747416,"sku":"9780367179748","price":192.2,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780367179748_887a6cfb-0a3a-4b22-8bfb-297c1d72005c.jpg?v=1768634115","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/english-woollen-industry-c-1200-c-1560","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
