      He might have added some of the innovations which came from the United States such as the cotton gin and the steam ship, Also canals and, soon, railroads which burgeoned in the U.S. as much if not more than in Britain.

    The laws enacted in Britain that set the economic stage for the Industrial Revolution (the butter) were the direct result of the English Civil War (1641-1651).

    You ignore the Enclosure Acts, forcing people of their lands and into the cities. And the booming wool trade. And East India Company.
    Also, I can't remember which Chinese academic pointed out in comparable history, rule of law for the rich and not rule by consent.

      Another precondition was the emergence of shared risk corporate structures derived from their royal chartered beginnings...ie how that excess capital was created.

    There had been no slavery within the British Isles for 700 years by the time the first Industrial Revolution began. That's a crucial ingredient which, sadly, in this otherwise fairly effective potted history, omits. It resulted in Britain's 19th Century global war on slavery: its real "finest hour".

    There was only one ingredient needed for the Industrial Revolution, Steam Power.
    James Watt's invention of the world's first PRACTICAL High Pressure Steam Powered Engine, in Scotland, created the Industrial Revolution.
    He dumped Newcomen's Atmospheric Power and Arkwright's 2000 years old Water-Power for Steam Power.
    And that was it!

      No water power was available before steam. It was capitalism that supercharged the IR.

    We only needed one ingredient for the Industrial Revolution.
    STEAM POWER.
    Scotland's James Watt dumped Newcomen's 70 years old Atmospheric Power and Arkwright's 2000 years old Water-Power for Steam Power!
    To achieve that he had to invent a new engine, the world's first PRACTICAL Steam Powered Engine. It changed Britain and then the world.
    It was a Power Revolution!
    Take away James Watt's Steam Power and Steam machinery and you don't get an Industrial Revolution.
    No Steamships, Locomotives, and no thousands more Steam driven Factories. Just Newcomen Atmospheric Pumps and some Arkwright Waterwheels.
    It was nothing to do with textiles and " flying shuttles " !

    in my -oh so humble- opinion... it didn't !
    All y'all British think it started with steam engines , but it was when the Dutch started using windmills to produce land from water & timber from trees.-AND invented kapitalism with the EastIndiaTrade COMPANY...

    The Industrial Revolution happened due to the one and only Invention of the world's first PRACTICAL Steam Engine by Scotland's James Watt
    It was a Power Revolution!
    Watt didn't have loads of money. He had to work at the same time.
    Take away Steam Power and Steam Technology and you have no Industrial Revolution!
