Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book focuses on the history of small towns in America, their growth, development and decline. The author uses examples from many diffferent towns to illustrate the challenges faced by small towns in retaining their populations and economies as rural areas have become less economically important than urban ones in the 20th century. The author delves into why many small towns have become impoverished or even vanished entirely over the years and what this teaches us about the role of small towns in maintaining American culture and society. The survival and endurance of some small towns in the face of these larger scale changes are examined in depth as well, what these towns have in common that larger, less healthy small towns and rural communities lack, and how this knowledge could be used to help sustain small towns into the future. This book will be a valuable asset to readers interested in the impact of societal and economic changes on the rural landscape, American history buffs, community organizers, and anyone curious about the process by which small towns in America have changed over time, and what that means for the nation as a whole.
