Industry in Hull: Its Origins and Development, 1800-1961
|
| Abstract |
An examination of the evolution of industry in Hull, Quebec, and its influence on the development of the city over three time periods. The author focuses on the timber trade (1800-1845), established by American immigrant Philemon Wright and his family who were the fist Europeans to settle in the area; the era of the sawn lumber and the rise of related secondary manufacturing (1845-1890), under the leadership American-born E.B. Eddy; and the era of industrial development in the city (1890-1961), when hydro-electric development allowed for the introduction of pulp and paper manufacturing, along with slaughtering and meat packing, textile and clothing, and cement industries.
