Dissolving the Bonds
This dissertation presents the first study of the British print publishers Robert Sayer (1726-1794) and John Bennett (c. 1745-1787). From 1748 to 1794, the two men ran one of the largest print- and map-publishing businesses in the London. The importance of their firm lay chiefly in its ability to influence the design, production, distribution, and consumption of prints across the British Empire and the European continent. In the 1770s, the publishers issued a series of mezzotints that responded to the conflict in the British colonies in North America. Though intended to be short-lived, one of them--"The Bostonians Paying the Excise-Man, or Tarring & Feathering"--Instead became an enduring em...

Metal Mines of Llanengan: Mining Ventures in a North Wales Parish
The relatively unknown Llanengan metal mining field is found on the St. Tudwal's headland, on the tip of the Lleyn Peninsula, North Wales. Its isolated position meant that it never was given the same publicity as many of the major metal mining areas. Nevertheless it was a hive of activity in the latter half of the 19th century, and the mines were deepened with the aid of steam power, used for pumping water out of the workings, and for winding ore to the surface. Everything, from mine engines to coal was brought into the area on ships. The book details the history of mining in the area from the 17th century through to its eventual demise at the end of the 19th century. Initially mining was co...
