About this work

Description

Letter from Josiah Wedgwood to Erasmus Galton. The letter is ambiguous but seems to discuss a public campaign to gather support for obtaining an act of Parliament necessary for the improvement or construction of a "navigation" or canal. Mentions Worsley and the Manchester area, so possibly refers to the Manchester Ship Canal.
