Description
Harmsworth`s Universal Encyclopedia 1940s.Canal: Map of the canal system of the British Isles, showing the waterways now in use and those converted into railways. The canal network of the United Kingdom played a vital role in the Industrial Revolution. The canals permitted the creation of wealth, by industry, that led to the British Empire in the Victorian Era. The UK was the first country to develop a nationwide canal network, which expanded to nearly 4,000 miles 6,400 kilometres in length. The canals allowed raw materials to be transported to a place of manufacture, and finished goods to be transported to consumers, more quickly and cheaply than via a land based route.
