This fascinating case study examines two communities separated by the St. Lawrence River: Cornwall, Ontario, and Massena, New York, from the end of the Revolutionary War to the present. Moving from the struggles of early settlers to industrialization and beyond, Claire Puccia Parham chronicles how the residents of both areas created similar social, political, and economic institutions because of their peripheral locations in a capitalist world system and their inherent congregational and democratic values. These distinctive views often brought them into conflict with national leaders. 607 $aCornwall (Ont.)$xHistory 607 $aMassena (N.Y.)$xHistory 607 $aNorthern boundary of the United States$xHistory, Local 607 $aSaint Lawrence Seaway$xHistory 607 $aUnited States$xRelations$zCanada$vCase studies 607 $aCanada$xRelations$zUnited States$vCase studies 607 $aCanada$xHistory 607 $aUnited States$xHistory 676 $a971.3/75 700 $aParham$b Claire Puccia$01614576 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910829199603321 996 $aFrom great wilderness to Seaway towns$93944423 997 $aUNINA
