Wedgwood BBC excerpt

Brian Dolan joins historian and author AN Wilson to explore the life of Josiah Wedgwood. As one of the founding fathers of the Industrial Revolution, Wegdwood was a self-made, self-educated creative giant, whose other achievements might be better known if he wasn't so celebrated for his pottery. Wedgwood was Britain's first great artist-industrialist, an innovative scientist and a man with the passion for the Rights of Man, at a time when Britain was marked by the slave trade. At the core of his mission, Wedgwood wanted to make beautiful objects and he wanted to leave the world a more beautiful place. Originally broadcast on BBC. A What Larks! Production.
