"It is not appropriate to see this book as settling the debate on the attitude of the British government about industrialisation in its colonies. It does provide valuable insight into the process of determining colonial policy."
CBH - "In the final analysis, this important study suggests that what did or did not happen economically to British colonies in this period owed little to the Colonial office."
English Historical Review - "..meticulously researched...The historical accounts are interesting and informative, and the use of interviews is impressive."
Labour History- " It...provides valuable insight into the process of determining colonial policy"
History- " A concise conclusion, a helpful alphabetical listing of key players, and a competent bibliography complete this relevant contribution to British colonial history
