In the years surrounding the Civil War, European immigrants and textile workers came to Rhode Island to work in the state's mills. Soon, villages and neighborhoods formed around these mills, creating unique and closely knit communities in which the wealthy families who owned and operated the mills lived side by side with those who labored for them. The photographs presented here offer a glimpse at the development of these familial communities that are such an integral part in the history of both Rhode Island and the United States. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Joe Fuoco\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0738564141\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780738564142\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Arcadia Publishing (SC)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/01\/1997\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.69lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.23h x 6.60w x 0.34d","brand":"Joe Fuoco","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43947045617919,"sku":"9780738564142","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_23f7644a-235e-4a17-bc0f-df3ad7e145a4.jpg?v=1681516386","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/rhode-islands-mill-villages-joe-fuoco-9780738564142","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
