Description

Explore the global evolution of the meat industry from 1840 onwards in this comprehensive economic history by Richard Perren. This scholarly work examines how producers, sellers and consumers across North and South America, Australia, New Zealand and Britain shaped the international meat trade through capital investment and individual enterprise. Drawing on government reports and papers from all major countries involved, Perren provides a detailed analysis of how an efficient meat exporting industry was built during the nineteenth century and beyond. The book offers valuable insights into the interactions between different market participants and the economic forces that drove the development of one of the world's most significant industries. Published by Routledge, this volume contributes to modern economic and social history by tracing how technology, trade networks and consumer demand transformed meat production and distribution on a global scale.
