''From The Cotton Field To The Cotton Mill'' is a historical study of the industrial transition in North Carolina during the early 20th century. Written by Holland Thompson and published in 1906, this book explores the impact of industrialization on the state’s economy, society, and culture. The author examines the shift from an agricultural economy based on cotton production to a manufacturing economy centered around cotton mills. He traces the development of the textile industry in North Carolina, from the early mills in the Piedmont region to the larger factories in the eastern part of the state. Thompson also discusses the social and political implications of this transition, including the effects on labor, race relations, and the environment. This book provides a comprehensive overview of the industrialization of North Carolina and its impact on the state’s people and communities.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
