Cotton has been here more than two-thirds of human history and accounts for 50% of the fiver industry. Cotton has played a more important role than silk or wool in human culture. By following the history of cotton, we encounter with the discovery of a new civilization technology, inspiring explorers, mad colonialists, and the advent of the Industrial Revolution.
