Excellent rural history!,
By
This review is from: Farm, Shop, Landing: The Rise of a Market Society in the Hudson Valley, 1780–1860 (Paperback)
This is an excellent recounting of the changes in a rural society from the Revolutionary era to the antebellum era. Bruegel very skillfully combines economic and social change. Mining newspapers, diaries, farmers' account ledgers, and a variety of other primary and secondary sources, the author provides many examples of the interaction and response of the region's inhabitants to the changing world around them. This is the type of book history teachers and students should be reading!
