Are the authors suggesting that Great Britain's success during the industrial revolution was mainly due to its tariffs and financial policies

It was also the fact that Britain had a large pool of resources due to imperialism.

Explanation:

Great Britain's success during the industrial revolution was mainly due to its tariffs and financial policies is one of the few facts that the government of Britain would have historically liked to believe but it does not really hold up any sort of scrutiny in the thought process.

There were other nations in as much of a position as Britain was but the fact of the matter was that British had the most colonies and thus most raw material that was used fully by these conducive laws for the industrial activity.
