Annotations / Notes: Although this Baltimore neighborhood is no longer a mill town, the area's geographic and social isolation has allowed it, in many ways, to preserve its mill town character. It is a largely homogenous community, predominantly working class.

Beirne, Francis F. The Amiable Balimoreans. New York: Dutton and Company, 1951.
Annotations / Notes: For many years the standard popular volume on Baltimore social history, though not intended to be comprehensive, Beirne's book provides a series of sketches of important events, personalities, and cultural traits that distinguish the city. Representative chapters tell the stories of the origins and importance of the port and the B&O Railroad; the nineteenth-century merchants who set the tone for economic and social life; the role of Germans, Jews, and African Americans in the city's social mix; and literary and cultural achievements. Its generally affirmative tone, conveyed by the title, is echoed in the book's concluding observation that "there will always be a Baltimore full of amiable people, going its leisurely and contented way."

Bender, Thomas. "Law, Economy, and Social Values in Jacksonian America: A Maryland Case Study." Maryland Historical Magazine 71 (Winter 1976): 484-97.
Annotations / Notes: Bender examines the legal and economic assumptions underlying the conflict between the Chesapeake Canal Company and the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad in the 1820s and 1830s to illustrate his argument about the triumph of "modernization" in the period. The conflict pitted the interests of the canal company to protect rights granted to it by its prior charter for westward development against the interests of the railroad in developing a competitive alternative. While the Maryland Court of Appeals applied conservative assumptions in ruling for the former, supporting the principle of monopoly, the state legislature, believing that competition advanced the interests of the state, applied "modernization" assumptions to force a compromise which permitted the railroad to proceed.
