Cooperation in New England: Urban and Rural is a book written by James Ford and originally published in 1913. The book explores the history and development of cooperative movements in urban and rural areas of New England during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part focusing on urban cooperatives and the second part on rural cooperatives. In the first part, Ford examines the growth of consumer cooperatives in cities such as Boston, Worcester, and Providence, and discusses their impact on the local economy and society. He also looks at the challenges faced by these cooperatives, including competition from traditional retailers and internal management issues.In the second part of the book, Ford turns his attention to agricultural cooperatives in rural New England. He discusses the formation of dairy cooperatives, fruit growers’ associations, and other agricultural organizations, and examines their role in improving the economic conditions of farmers in the region. Ford also looks at the impact of these cooperatives on rural communities and the challenges they faced in terms of organization and management.Throughout the book, Ford emphasizes the importance of cooperation as a means of improving economic and social conditions for workers and farmers. He also provides a detailed historical account of the cooperative movement in New England, drawing on primary sources and interviews with cooperative leaders and members. Overall, Cooperation in New England: Urban and Rural is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of cooperatives in the United States and their impact on local communities.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
