Everyday Architecture of the Mid-Atlantic
Transforming Rural Life
One of the many changes that transformed 19th-century agrarian life was the shift in the dairy industry from home to factory butter- and cheesemaking. In the early 19th century virtually all such work took place on the family farm. But after about 1860, production began to move from farms to local crossroads factories. In this book Sally McMurry takes a new look at the underlying causes of this development and its implications for the dairying fa…

Transforming Rural Life
American Rural Women and the Transformation of Dairy Processing, 1820–80
Among the global transformations that have involved rural women, few have been as historically significant as the removal of dairy processing from individual farms to central plants. In most cases, as butter and cheese manufacture left the farm, the workforce also changed: men replaced women. This ‘defeminization’ of dairying took place at varying paces and in different ways, but the ultimate result was the same throughout the West: women's parti…

Women's Work in Agriculture
English cheeses-Cheddar, Gloucester single or double, Cheshire, Stilton, and others-are familiar throughout the Anglo-American world, whether consumed after dinner in English homes or as key ingredients of American tex-mex or vegetarian cuisine. These famous cheeses originated long ago but in most cases reached a zenith in quantity and in reputation during the last century. Little is known about the history of English cheese dairying, despite its…

In this fascinating interdisciplinary study, Sally McMurry examines one arena of domestic change -- the design of northern rural farmhous…
