If you could travel back in time, you would be amazed at how much life has changed in the past 200 years.  I know 200 years may seem like a very long time to you, but in the history of mankind, it is just a blink of an eye.  But the changes that have occurred are astounding.  The industrial revolution is the term we use to indicate the use of machinery in the work day.  There is no doubt that the machines have changed our quality of life.  Although the industrial revolution was not all positive, for the most part, our standard of living was changed for the better.
SUBJECTS:      Industrial revolution.
