Useful Knowledge of William Hutton

Susan Whyman's latest book tells the story of William Hutton, a self-taught workman who rose to prominence during the Industrial Revolution in the rapidly-expanding city of Birmingham. This book brings to life a cast of 'rough diamonds', people of worth and character, but lacking in manners and education, who improved their towns and themselves.

Aceasta carte aduce la viata o multime de „diamante brute”, oameni cu valoare si caracter, dar lipsiti de maniere si educatie, care si-au imbunatatit orasele si pe ei insisi.
