I think most scholars would argue that nationalism as we understand it today, was created during the French revolution -- which wasn't that long ago at all. Eric Hobsbawm talks about it a lot in his excellent The Age of Revolution.
Here is a good summary in case you are interested (which I believe you are).
> So that would just be books recommended, not written yet.
Remind me in 4 months and I'll you my dissertation on the relationship between industrialisation and social change.
Well, the ones I own that are relevant to industrialisation are as follows:
Eric Hobsbawm Age of Revoltution: 1789 - 1848 - Also add in Hobsbawm's next two text books, Age of Capital: 1848-1875, and Age of Empirel: 1875-1914
The Ascendancy of Europe: 1815- 1914
The Birth of the Modern World: 1780 - 1914
Roger Osborne: Iron Steam and Money
Seven Wonders of the Industrial World, Deborah Cadbury
Britain's Industrial Revolution: The Making of a Manufacturing People, 1700 - 1870, by Barrie Trinder
Shropshire's Industrial Revolution, by Barrie Trinder
Books on the textile industry that I've used this year (not done much focus on the textile industry, more the Luddite movement)
The Genesis of Industrial Capital: A Study of West Riding Wool Textile Industry, c.1750-1850
The Industrial Revolution, 1760-1830 by T.S.Ashton
And just because I mentioned it (can't find the links) the Luddites are covered well by:
"The Risings of the Luddites, chartists and Plug-drawers" by Frank Peel
"The Early English Trade Unions: Documents from the Home Office Papers in the Record Office" by A.Aspinall
"The Luddites: Machine Breaking in Regency England" by M.I.Thomis
"Popular Disturbances and Public Order in Regency England" by Frank Ongley Darvall
Nice.
Highly recommend:
