Reseña del libro "Newport at Work: People and Industries Through the Years (en Inglés)"
The city of Newport, lying on the River Usk South Wales, has been an important port serving Wales since mediaeval times. The Industrial Revolution brought enormous wealth to Newport, when it became the centre of coal exports from the Welsh valleys, and although the docks have declined in recent years, large areas of Newport are being regenerated and the city still retains significant industries.Newport at Work explores the history of the city through the work and industries that have characterised it. The docks have played a vital role in the history of Newport, with its many ancillary industries that grew up with the docks, including the railways from the valleys. During the US Civil War many blockade runners came to Newport. Newport was also the home of the Mole Wrench, Pell’s Mint Humbugs and Lovell Confectionary’s Milky Lunch, and the author includes the story of other businesses and shops since the late Victorian period. Recent industries include micro-breweries and specialised crafts.Newport at Work explores the working life of this South Wales city and its people, and the industries that have characterised it. The book will appeal to all those with an interest in the history of Newport.
