Title
MAIN STREET BLUES: THE DECLINE OF SMALLTOWN AMERICA (URBAN LIFE & URBAN LANDSCAPE),Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Richard O. Davies takes the reader through two hundred years of American history as reflected in the small Ohio farming village of Camden. Davies describes the development of the relatively selfsufficient community that emerged from the Ohio land rush of the early nineteenth century, a community that reached its apex during the 1920s and then entered into a period of slow decline caused by forces beyond its control. He details the roles of land speculation, the railroad era, the impact of the automobile, the emergence of a tightly knit community, and finally the postWorld War II loss of business and population to the nearby cities of Dayton, Hamilton, and Cincinnati.
