Synopsis
Excerpt from Culture of a Contemporary Rural Community: Landaff, New Hampshire
Landaff, in New Hampshire. Was selected because it is an old community which presumably had experienced a long period of stability which had been considerably disturbed, in recent years, by the penetra tion of the Boston milkshed into that area. The reader will note that the study throws some doubt on the assumption of a high degree of stability in the community in the past and will find that change has not been so great, recently as had been assumed.

Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the history of a small rural community in New Hampshire, Landaff, tracking its growth and evolution from its initial founding in the 1700s to the present day. By examining the challenges and triumphs faced by its inhabitants, the author explores how the region, representative of many such communities across the United States, has changed over time. The book places particular emphasis on the impact of commercialization and industrialization on Landaff, tracing the consequences of the shift from self-sufficiency to a cash economy and the subsequent out-migration of young people seeking opportunities elsewhere. The text also analyzes the role of immigration in shaping the community's identity, examining the arrival of non-Yankee and non-farm families. Throughout, the book provides a nuanced and insightful examination of the complex interplay between economic, social, and cultural forces in shaping the character of rural America. It offers a valuable perspective on the historical context that has influenced the present-day circumstances of many similar communities, shedding light on the factors that have shaped their identity and resilience.
