Abstract

Excerpts from the report Foreword: This is a report on one of six communities which were studied contemporaneously by six different participant observers or field workers during the year 1940. Each study was sufficiently independent of the other five to make desirable separate treatment and publication but the reader will gain full understanding of the findings only when he has read the reports of the six studies as a group. Landaff, in New Hampshire, was selected because it is an old community which presumably had experienced a long period of stability which had been considerably disturbed, in recent years, by the penetration of the Boston milkshed into that area. The reader will note that the study throws some doubt on the assumption of a high degree of stability in the community in the past and will find that change has not been so great, recently as had been assumed.
