Hardback. Condizione: New. This book refutes prevailing theories that attribute post-1950 state per capita income convergence to (1) neo-classical adjustment mechanisms, (2) institutional sclerosis, and (3) southern industrialization. Wheat and Crown argue that southern income was low because of slavery's legacy-sharecropping, agricultural dependence, low urbanization, poor education, high Black population percentages, and low wage rates. The legacy's dominant feature was the sharecropper-tenant farmer system, which replaced slavery. Sharecropping was the foundation of southern poverty. Sharecropping's collapse, beginning around 1950, affected all of the other features of slavery's legacy. For example, millions of sharecroppers out-migrated from the South, shifting poverty to the North and lowering the South's Black percentage. This out-migration, white in-migration, and the civil rights movement jointly raised educational attainment in the South, further boosting southern income. Southern industrialization had only a marginally significant effect. In 1950's high income region, the West, the transport cost element in the price of manufactured goods shrank because of (1) transportation improvements and (2) rapid manufacturing growth, which reduced the need for long distance imports from the Manufacturing Belt. The resulting decline in the West's relative cost of living led to wage adjustments. Consequently, the West-despite having the highest manufacturing growth rates-had the nation's lowest per-capita income growth rates. Agricultural decline and educational gains stimulated income growth in the Plains. Nationally, per-capita employment gains were a strong influence.

From Volume V of the War Department's Report of Explorations in California for Railroad Routes, 1856, led by Lieut. R.S. Williamson, prepared to accompany the report of William P. Blake, geologist to the expedition. Hand colored lithograph by Sarony, Major, and Knapp, New York. A landmark early geologic map of California. Lake Tahoe is labeled "Lake Bonpland" the name given it by Charles Preuss on his 1848 map. Fremont and Preuss were the first Europeans to see Lake Tahoe. Amie Jacques Alexandre Bonpland was a celebrated French botanist. Some near contemporary maps of the area called Lake Tahoe "Mountain Lake" - the name preferred by Fremont. On this map Lake Bonpland is shown draining into the American River system to the west and a mystery "Truckey Lake", northwest of Bonpland, flows into Pyramid Lake via the Truckey River. There was a lake named "Truckey" in the 1850's, but it was part of the Yuba River system. Apparently Fremont, Preuss, Williamson and Blake were more familiar with the Carson and Walker river systems since they are more accurately drawn. In Fine condition.
