Why were other european countries slower to industrialize than britain?

Most credit Britain's faster industrialization to it's easy access to large quantities of coal. Many of the steam engines developed in that time were invented to pump out water of mines to get more coal. Many historians also credit the entrepreneurial spirit that was at first unique to England due to a common idea that wealth was infinite and could be created; however, in France Wealth was seen as finite and had to be taken from someone else in order to attain it. Mix these two key factors with Britian's colonies which it used as forcibly secluded markets for English products and they industrialized very rapidly. At the same time they expanded different types of transportation and expanded both canals and the roads in the British Isles to move more products.
