Acerca del autor
The late Charles Fogg was awarded a bursary of the Leverhulme Trust under the auspices of Avoncroft Museum of Buildings near Bromsgrove, Worcestershire. Its nineteenth-century chainshop, saved from destruction in Cradley in 1970, formed the basis of his study. He was helped by one of the chainmakers in the shop, Clarry Johnson. Practical aptitudes strengthened by five years previous study at art school stood Mr Fogg in good stead and the initial result of his bursary was an exhibition "Shutting Chain" in 1978.

paperback. Condición: Very Good. Minor wear, stapled binding, a couple of small chips on rear cover, internally clean. An illustrated study of the traditional British chainmaking industry, concentrating on the skilled ironworkers of England's Black Country, particularly Cradley Heath in Worcestershire.The book examines the history and techniques of hand-forged chainmaking, from early manufacturing methods to the development of mechanized production. It documents the tools, workshops, chain designs, and specialized skills involved in this once-important British industry.Of particular historical interest is the discussion of working conditions among nineteenth-century chainmakers, including the employment of women and children, low wages, physically demanding labor, and the dangerous conditions of domestic chain workshops.Illustrated throughout with historical photographs, diagrams, and examples of different chain types, including agricultural chains, harness fittings, industrial chains, and specialized links.The photographs include nineteenth-century chainshops, Cradley chainmakers, traditional forging methods, and preserved workshops at the Avoncroft Museum of Buildings and Black Country Museum.Author Charles Fogg researched the industry through surviving historic workshops and firsthand assistance from former chainmaker Clarry Johnson.An excellent reference for collectors and researchers interested in British industrial history, blacksmithing, traditional metalworking, labor history, historic trades, and the industrial heritage of the West Midlands.
