    There really isn't a defining date as to when it started or ended and there's more than one.

    I highly recommend reading the introduction to the Industrial Revolution in the Wikipedia. It explains it well and covers the dividing line (which is the introduction of steam power) between the first and the second.

    The industrial revolution started when people started working in factories instead of using old simple machines to manufacture.
