Short answers, pulled from the story.
Andrew Jackson coined the phrase "Father of the American Industrial Revolution" for Samuel Slater because Slater built the first successful water-powered roller spinning textile mill in the United States after memorizing British factory machinery designs. He replicated and adapted the Arkwright spinning system that Britain had kept under strict export laws.
People in Belper, Derbyshire, called him "Slater the Traitor" because he emigrated to America in 1789 and brought British textile technology with him, violating the spirit of laws that prohibited exporting industrial designs. Many Belper residents earned their living at Jedediah Strutt's mills and viewed his departure as a betrayal of the community.
The Rhode Island System was a factory management model Slater developed based on New England village family life. Instead of hiring individual workers, Slater recruited whole families, provided company-owned housing and stores, and established Sunday schools where college students taught the children of mill workers to read and write.
Slater located Oziel Wilkinson and his son David to produce the iron castings and forgings he needed. David Wilkinson later recalled that all the iron turning was done with hand chisels or tools in lathes operated by hand-powered cranks.
The first factory strike in U.S. history occurred in 1824 near Pawtucket, Rhode Island, when women mill workers resisted a proposed 25 percent wage cut put forward by Slater and the other local mill owners. Slater opposed unionization throughout his career.
When Slater died on the 21st of April, 1835, he owned 13 mills and was worth 1.3 million dollars, a fortune whose income value was estimated at 1.12 billion dollars in 2022. He died in Webster, Massachusetts, a town he had founded in 1832.
