History is littered with important individuals that we spend time studying in class, but how important can one individual be? We have looked at Robert Owen, Richard Arkwright, Mathew Boulton and James Watt and what their impact was on the Industrial Revolution. The big question we need to be asking now is which one was most significant in making this period of British history so important or even if the work of these individuals is relevant to the study of this period. Would the Industrial Revolution had have been the same without the work of these men. Leave your views below and explain your answers. Do you agree with what others have posted?
