Boom Stages In American Expansion

Charles M. Gates

Business History Review, 1959, vol. 33, issue 1, 32-42

Abstract: In the years from 1880 to 1910 the Pacfiic Northwest went through a development that appears to have been broadly typical. This boom stage, a nonrecurrent frontier phenomenon, is actually the process of integrating the developing area with the national economy. The patterns set in the pliant boom era by forceful “ground floor operators” are likely to harden into long-term permanence.
