To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

To-day there are one hundred great cotton factories in the city of Fall River alone, operating three and one half million spindles, nearly one hundred thousand looms, and giving employment to twenty-seven thousand operatives. There are more than twenty -five million spindles in daily operation in the United States, and even a greater number on the continent of Europe, while Great Britain contains over fifty million ; and when to these we add the spindles of India, Japan, and China, we 62 THE FA...CTORY have a total of one hundred and twenty mil- lion spindles giving employment to an army of workers as great as the entire popula- tion of England when Arkwright took out his patents for spinning by rollers. Nor is this all. The factory system first applied to the cotton industry has been applied to all manufactures as well as to agriculture and has become the central fact in modern in- dustrial life.
We are now to take up the question of how the establishment of the factory affected England's laboring poor, and to study a little more in detail the social effects of the Industrial Revolution.
