Description: Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE The Web Of Progress: Private Values and Public Styles in Boston and Charleston, 1828-1843. By William H. and Jane H. Pease. The University of Georgia Press, Athens, 1991. Soft Cover. 334 pages. Illustrated with 2 maps. Measures 9” x 6”. This book reconstructs the experiences of two major American cities--each a center of regional culture--in an important historical period, the 1830s. Discussing such topics as economic growth, welfare, politics, education, class, family, religion, philanthropy, disorder and violence, and responses to economic and political reverses, this study offers a fascinating contrast between these two communities. "This study carefully reconstructs the social histories of two vastly different American cities, Boston and Charleston, during the Jacksonian era. Set against the backdrop of the Nullification Crisis, the Financial Panic of 1837, the transportation revolution, and growing industrialization, the book examines the ways in which Boston flourished and Charleston languished economically as each city coped with economic growth and political reversal; the provision of police protection, welfare , and education; and the problems associated with class, church, and family.
