Which early 19th century (early 1800s) reformer had the biggest impact on your life? Briefly explain in a one to two sentence explanation.

Explanation:

I'm going to give you one that is late in the 1800s and another that was in the middle of the 1800s.

The first one is Charles Russel who was the founder of the "Bible Students" later on the Jehovah's Witnesses. He was sensible and honest and relied on the Bible. His virtue was that he studied (along with those who followed him) until he was satisfied that he understand what was murky to him. I like that honest work that went into what he declared.

My second choice is perhaps the greatest practical physicist in the history of physics. He was responsible for so much, and much of it was quite straight forward. If you are really interested in Michael Faraday, you can read his Christmas Lectures which are the very foundation of a lot of disciplines. It's easy reading and very entertaining. He was the rock star of his time, and people treasured tickets to those lectures. He belonged to a church whose only claim to fame was that he belonged to it. Humphrey Davy, who was no slouch in the history of science, was once asked what his greatest discovery was. His answer was Michael Faraday.

the industrial development of cities in the ruhr area in the nineteenth century is described. the research was based on english and german language sources. several factors that shaped growth and paths of the cities were categorized and analyzed. they are locations, resources, traditions, entrepreneurs, and technological developments. locations and resources were the most important among them; other factors may be regarded as consequences from locations and resources. among the cities, bochum, essen, gelsenkirchen, and dortmund had the richest resources and most favorable locations in the transportation network and grew to be the largest cities in the ruhr area near the end of the nineteenth century. riverside location was also a favorable factor for the development, as shown in the development of duisburg on the confluence of rhine and ruhr. resource distribution can explain the rise of textile industry, metallurgical industry, and coal and iron industries, and the northward progression of the mining industry. tradition was an important factor for cities such as krefeld, barmen, elberfeld, solingen, and remscheid, which experienced development based on their traditions through the nineteenth century. various entrepreneurs exerted influences within and beyond the local level over the ruhr area. technological development stimulated the northward progression of the mining industry and the deep connection between the coal and the iron industries.
