Bücher von Harriet L. Herring

This book is the result of personal first-hand investigation of over three hundred mills in the state. Herring discusses fully the activities of mill managements with respect to schools, churches, athletics, recreation, housing, company stores, general community enterprises, public health, and employee representation. Originally published in 1929.

Presents numerous facts about the 352 types of manufacturing in the US and more specific facts about those related to the South. Herring reveals the directions in which the southeast has pushed its industrial development far enough and the directions in which it could wisely plan for and encourage expansion. Originally published in 1940.

This is the story of a revolution - the factors influencing management's decision to sell, the extent of the sales, procedures followed in the various sales, psychological effects upon the worker, effects upon labour-management relations, the reaction of the union, and the changes in mill village life resulting from the sales.
