Essays in New England History (Garland Studies in American Popular History and Culture)
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Drawing on primary documents such as farmer's diaries, small rural papers of the 19th century, and the publications of state agricultural societies, this provocative study presents an intelligent overview into the driving forces of that shaped American history in the Northeast. The book pays careful attention to logging and pulp paper production, juvenile literature of the time, farming, and developing settlements, among other "country" matters.
