Book Overview
'Monumental... A book of grand scale and impressive accomplishment... Wallace has revised our image of 19th-century industrial development... Displaying his professional anthropologist's eye for telling detail, as well as the sort of prodigious research and sense of plot and character development more often found in the work of historians and novelists, (he) has demonstrated that the history of our smallest towns speaks to some of the largest questions of our past and present.' -- Roy Rosenzweig, New York Times Book Review.

This book is lucid, engaging and compriehensive, covering the spectrum between personal and statistical information interleaved with philosophical perspective. I couldn't recommend it more highly!
