Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book thoroughly examines social organization in Litchfield County, Connecticut, during the mid-20th Century. Beginning with the Native American population, the author charts the waves of European immigration, starting with the English and progressing through the 19th Century arrival of Irish, German, Polish, and Italian immigrants, whose descendants can still be found throughout the county. Beyond its historical value, the book offers unique insights into the challenges and opportunities of living in an area undergoing rapid industrialization and suburbanization. Additionally, it provides a detailed look at the agricultural practices of the region's dairy farmers, whose work remains central to the culture of Litchfield County.
