Down on Mahans Creek A History of an Ozarks Neighborhood【電子書籍】[ Benjamin G. Rader ]

   

<p>In <em>Down on Mahans Creek</em>, Benjamin Rader provides a fascinating look at a neighborhood in the Missouri Ozarks from the early nineteenth to the mid-twentieth century. He explores the many ways in which Mahans Creek, though remote, was never completely isolated or self-sufficient. The residents were deeply affected by the Civil War, and the arrival of the railroad and the timber boom in the 1890s propelled the community into modern times, creating a more fast-paced and consumer-oriented way of life and a new moral sensibility. During the Great Depression the creek’s residents returned to some of the older values for survival. After World War II, modern technology changed their lives again, causing a movement away from the countryside and to the nearby small towns.</p> <p><em>Down on Mahans Creek</em> tells the dynamic story of this distinctive neighborhood navigating the push and pull of the old and new ways of life.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。
