This fascinating and moving book brings to life the industrial and immigrant experience which gave birth to Manchester in the nineteenth century and continued to shape the city's destiny well into the twentieth century. More than a hundred years ago, thousands of immigrants from Europe and Canada were drawn to the mills of Manchester by the promise of a better life. In stirring photographs and text, Manchester: The Mill and the Immigrant Experience examines the aspirations, the struggles, and the everyday adventures of Manchester's immigrant families. Reaffirming the power of photography to move and inform us, Manchester: The Mills and the Immigrant Experience creates a vivid picture of life during nearly a century of rapid industrial change. We join the bustle of Elm and Hanover Streets in the 1880s, witness children working at the mighty Amoskeag Manufacturing Company, enter a Greek coffeehouse in the early 1900s, get caught up in the bitter labor strikes of the 1920s, and meet unusual local figures such as the Hermit of Mosquito Pond.

DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY!
Style: Original, Size: Standard/Queen
I ordered 4 pillows and paid almost $100 for them. They're absolutely pitiful! I could have bought better pillows at Walmart. They're soft and thin. Not at all what I was expecting.

Puffed out to be fluffiest pillows yet.
Style: Original, Size: Standard/Queen
When I received my two pillows I was concerned they wouldn't be as fluffy as advertised; they came rolled up and shoved in a small box. However, after some time sitting out they are even fluffier than imagined. Firmness is exactly what I wanted and even after my husband folds them, they bounce back to their previous shape.
