Industrial Revolution

Industrial Revolution In the 1700s, a great change began that we now call the Industrial Revolution. Gradually, machines took the place of many hand tools. Much of the power once provided by people and horses began to be replaced, first by flowing water and then by steam engines. The Industrial Revolution began in Britain, in the textile, or cloth-making, industry. For centuries, workers had spun thread in their homes on spinning wheels. It took one person, spinning one strand at a time, almost two weeks to produce a pound of cotton thread. In the 1760s, the spinning jenny speeded up the thread- making process.

Factory System In 1764, Richard Arkwright invented the water frame, a spinning machine powered by running water rather than human energy. To house the large machines, manufacturers built textile mills on the banks of rivers. The new mills created a new way of working, known as the factory system. The factory system brings workers and machinery together in one place.

Steam Power Building factories on riverbanks had some disadvantages. In 1790, Arkwright built the first steam-powered textile plant. The steam engine was a reliable source of power. Factories no longer had to be built on riverbanks. They could be built in cities, where young women and children provided cheap labor.

Transportation Revolution Improvements in transportation spurred the growth of American industry. As transportation became faster and easier, factories could make use of raw materials from farther away. Improved transportation also allowed factory owners to ship their goods to distant markets.

Cotton Gin In 1793, Eli Whitney devised a simple machine that speeded the processing of cotton. His cotton gin used a spiked cylinder to remove seeds from cotton fibers. The Cotton Gin was revolutionary technology. A worker could process fifty times more cotton fiber with the gin than by hand. Cotton growing became far more profitable.

Slave Labor To grow more cotton, planters used more slave labor. In 1790, there were about 698,000 enslaved African Americans in the United States. By 1860, the census recorded nearly 4 million. Cotton became the greatest source of wealth for the United States. It enriched planters in the South, as well as bankers and ship owners in the North.
