''A Practical Detail Of The Cotton Manufacture Of The United States Of America: And The State Of The Cotton Manufacture Of That Country Contrasted And Compared With That Of Great Britain'' is a book written by James Montgomery in 1840. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the cotton manufacturing industry in the United States at the time, including detailed descriptions of the various processes involved in cotton production and the machinery used in the factories. Montgomery also compares and contrasts the state of the cotton industry in the United States with that of Great Britain, which was the leading producer of cotton goods at the time. He discusses the differences in labor practices, technology, and overall efficiency between the two countries. The book is considered an important historical document, as it provides insight into the development of the cotton industry in the United States during the mid-19th century. It is also a valuable resource for scholars and researchers interested in the history of industrialization and the impact of technology on manufacturing processes.With Comparative Estimates Of The Cost Of Manufacturing In Both Countries. Illustrated By Appropriate Engravings.
