Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Brief Survey of Housing Conditions in Bridgeport, Connecticut, 1914: Investigation and Report
Connecticut was originally a farming state, but in many parts the land was not well suited to this industry. The Yankee pieced out his income from the farm by some home industry which could be carried on during the winter months when the farm work was slack. From these small home manufactories grew the huge industrial activities of the present day.
