This volume collects Professor Parker's major writings on American
agricultural and industrial history, including some previously
unpublished essays. Taken as a whole, these essays give an account
of why and how the United States grew rich in the nineteenth
century, as well as a background against which to judge the present
position of the economy and its international position. Professor
Parker focuses on the nineteenth-century experience of the three
regions of the United States - northeast, south and midwest, and
shows wherein lay the sources of their wealth and growth into a
flourishing nation. A final chapter, looking at European
development from an American perspective, is especially timely in
view of the recent movements toward integration and democratisation
in the 'mother continent'.
