The discovery of coal in the 1880s caused a population boom, attracting immigrants from numerous ethnic groups. At the same time, liberalized homestead law drew sheep and cattle ranchers. Dee Garceau illuminates the economic and social importance of women in the ethnically diverse working-class towns as well as in the decentralized agricultural and ranching communities populated by native-born, middle-class Anglo-American families. Augmented by reminiscences and oral histories, this book traces the adaptations that broadened women's work roles and increased their domestic authority. Garceau also demonstrates how survival on the ranching and mining frontier heightened the value of group cooperation.
