The point of view in "The Industrial Revolution" differs from that presented in "Hope for Hannah" primarily in its focus and tone. "The Industrial Revolution" offers a broad overview of the era, highlighting both achievements and innovations while acknowledging some hardships, particularly towards the working class, but not delving deep into individual experiences. In contrast, "Hope for Hannah" focuses on a specific individual's reality—the struggles and emotions of Hannah Oglemeyer—and presents a more personal, nuanced view of the challenges faced by workers during that time.
Therefore, the correct answer to the multiple-choice question is:
B. The author of The Industrial Revolution is presenting a broad overview rather than an individual reality.
