It was certainly the most widespread, because it was impossible to move any distance at all without seeing some evidence of the existence of this important industry. The textile manufacturer, whether he worked in the home or in a factory building, was an essential member of almost every community, for there was hardly a parish in the land that did not have its contingent of spinners and weavers, dyers and fullers. The widespread occurrence of placenames associated with woollen manufacturing bears witness to the importance of wool in the economic history of Britain.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFirst published in 1972, \u003ci\u003eThe Wool Textile Industry in Great Britain\u003c\/i\u003e examines the aspects in the development of the wool textile industry in Britain.
