Project outcomes for National Science Foundation grant (SES-1260699), Modelling the Transport Revolution and the Industrial Revolution in England

 

I was fortunate to get a NSF grant in 2014-2017 to examine the effects of transport revolution in England. The main aim is to create new data to understand how the transport revolution and the industrial revolution were connected.

 

The project involves a close collaboration with the Cambridge Group for the History of Population and Social Structure. Follow this link to see the broader project

 

The project has produced several research papers, educational materials, data sets for research.
