Books by Roger Lloyd-Jones

A history of the development of the British bicycle industry from the perspective of business and economic history. Focusing on themes such as entrepreneurship, personal capitalism and organization, the industry's fortunes are traced through the history of one of its leading firms, Raleigh.

The authors use a long-wave framework to examine the historical evolution of British industrial capitalism since the late-18th century, and present a challenging and distinctive economic history of modern and contemporary Britain.

Focuses on the example of Britain's largest machine tool maker, Alfred Herbert Ltd of Coventry. Taking a chronological approach, this book explores how, during the late 19th century, the industry developed a reputation for excellence throughout the world, before the challenges of two world wars necessitated drastic changes and reorganisations.
