Abstract
Crisis Capital uses the tools of global history to rethink traditional narratives of American economic ascendance. It offers a reappraisal of a seemingly familiar story—the origins of industrial growth in the United States as told through the paradigmatic case of southeastern Massachusetts—by showing how the changing global geographies of migrant labor and mobile capital shaped the making of the Massachusetts economy, and with it, American industrial supremacy.
