'Fit for Management': Premium Apprenticeships and the English Brewing Industry, 1870-1914

Business History, 2001, vol. 43, issue 3, 33-53

Abstract: This article examines apprenticeship at a single English brewery, Flower & Sons of Stratford-upon-Avon, between 1870 and 1914, years that witnessed great advances in the science of brewing. While the institution of apprenticeship was generally on the decline as a method of training in these years, the detailed records of a particular provincial firm demonstrate its ability to adapt and survive during a period of change, while documenting the experiences of what may be described as some of the late nineteenth century's more fortunate pupils.
