"Saltaire was built solely for the enjoyment of the workers?" (Part A) This piece of coursework is about one of the most important historical figures in the world, Sir Titus Salt. This piece of coursework will have thoughts written down after an in-depth study stating whether or not, Sir Titus Salt was an entrepreneur or a philanthropist.
