Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lowell an Industrial Dream Come True This book has grown out of a paper by the undersigned read at the 113th meeting of The National Association of Cotton Manufacturers, held at Atlantic City, October 4 and 5, 1922. It was originally called "The Development of a Mill City." The chapter on "Cotton" and those leading up to the founding of Lowell were included in order that the background of the industrial picture might be more complete. Owing to the exacting demands of an exceedingly active business life, there has been no opportunity for cultivating the art of fine writing. If there is any merit in the work it lies in the fact that it is a plain unvarnished tale of a very remarkable industrial dream developed into a still more remarkable fact. The textile industry, which stands first in the industries of the country in the number of those employed, has retained all the conservatism which characterized its founders. It is in the belief that it has also the same broad vision which out of an idea built what has proved to be a great city, that I have told this story. I desire to acknowledge my great indebtedness to the members of my staff for their co-operation, over and above their routine work, in the many details connected with this book.

Book excerpt: Gendered Passages is the first full-length book devoted to the gendered analysis of the lives of French-Canadian migrants in early-twentieth-century Lowell, Massachusetts. It explores the ingenious and, at times, painful ways in which French-Canadian women, men, and children adjusted to the challenges of moving to, and settling in, that industrial city. Yukari Takai uncovers the multitude of cross-border journeys of Lowell-bound French Canadians, the centrality of their family networks, and the ways in which the ideology of the family wage and the socioeconomic realities in Québec and New England shaped migrants' lives on both sides of the border. Takai argues that French-Canadian husbands and wives, fathers and mothers, sons and daughters harboured complex interpersonal dynamics whereby differing and, at times, conflicting interests had to be negotiated in not necessarily equal terms, but in accordance with each member's power and authority within the family and, by extension, larger society. Drawing on extensive historical research including archival records, collections of oral histories, newspapers, and contemporary observations in both English and French, Gendered Passages contributes to the re-reading of French-Canadian migration, which constitutes a fundamental part of North American history.
