Description

“Three Iron Mining Towns” is an analysis of the interdependence of human character and social life hooked up with natural resource extraction. The 146 page book traces mining settlements through their formation, early years and maturity as resource dependent communities. Along the best way we be informed concerning the influence of culture upon the reformation of nature, the transformations of social institutions, the individuals who reside in these towns, politics and economy, and the con-tinuous ebb and go with the flow of social life and community well-being associated with the mining of iron ore.

“Three Iron Mining Towns” is without doubt one of the first sociological treatises which integrates the social with the bio-physical environment, a very good example of the best way wherein rural sociologists studied natural resources and the surroundings.
