Canning Gold is a meticulously researched examination of how sweet corn canning helped shape the economy, landscape and people of rural Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont during the "corn shop century," 1860-1960's. Paul Frederic powerfully demonstrates the strong community bond essential for the industry's initial success. Interviews with farmers, factory owners and cannery workers who raised and packed the corn, combined with the written record, and Frederic's insight derived from growing up in the shadow of a corn shop, enrich the work and trace various threads linking local patterns to regional, national and global forces.
In his memoirs, Craig O. Burt wrote about his experiences and many facets of life in and around Stowe, Vermont from the late 1800's to the 1960's. The course of his life and his position in the community afforded him a unique perspective. As co-owner of the Burt Lumber Company, he knew the countryside intimately. He had an affinity for nature and a reverence for the beauty of his surroundings. His keen powers of observation and description are evident in the narratives of the land, wildlife and weather. The absorbing accounts of the early days of lumbering and the evolution of the electric railroad as well as the details of every day life in Stowe give one a glimpse into a time past.In addition to accounts of the people and places of his time, Burt also gives accounts of the evolution of skiing in Stowe.
