Tales from the history of innovation.

Welcome to Age of Invention by me, Dr Anton Howes.

I’m a historian of innovation. I write mostly about the causes of Britain’s Industrial Revolution, focusing on the lives of the individual innovators who made it happen. I’m interested in everything from the exploits of sixteenth-century alchemists to the schemes of Victorian engineers. My research explores why they became innovators, and the institutions they created to promote innovation even further.

Sign up and I’ll keep you posted on my research, including my latest writing and any interesting notes from my work.
