But in the first years of the twentieth century, a significant change occurred in Westford when mills that had opened in the town 's Forge Village and Graniteville sections began to recruit workers from Russia, Poland, England, Ireland, Scotland, Italy, and Canada. Westford depicts what the arrival of the mills and the mill workers meant to the town and its evolution in the twentieth century. The book also describes the effect of the mills ' demise in the 1950s, and chronicles the town 's recent development into a very appealing bedroom community for workers in Boston.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Westford League of Woman Voters, Westford League of Women Voters, Ellen Harde\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1531636179\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781531636173\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Arcadia Publishing Library Editions\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/01\/1996\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 130\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.91lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.61h x 6.69w x 0.38d","brand":"Westford League of Woman Voters","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44491603411199,"sku":"9781531636173","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_246e783d-1e36-4c94-a680-34d15153d088.jpg?v=1699452160","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/westford-westford-league-of-woman-voters-9781531636173","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
