It challenges the view in prairie historiography that agriculture had commercialized before the west was opened to settlement, and that ethnic communities alone resisted the market's potential. Using a novel combination of demographic, financial, and legal evidence, Sylvester shows that both Ontario and Quebec migrants came west within family networks, and that neither economic individualism nor ethnic clustering overshadowed the importance of family strategies. In an environment where landed proprietorship was the norm, the demands of parents on the unpaid labour of their children constrained the growth of labour markets, and concerns for farm succession limited the accumulation of wealth. In the shadow of an industrializing and urbanizing world, these people, who came mainly from the District of Montreal and eastern Ontario, sometimes via New England, raised large families, drew largely on the unpaid labour of kin, owned their own farms, limited financial entanglements with outsiders, and established multiple heirs. While household autonomy diminished over time, the limits of rural capitalism persisted. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 648 7 Geschichte 1870-1940.|2swd 650 0 Family farms|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85047039|zManitoba|zMontcalm|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/no2001037799-781|xHistory.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99005024 650 7 Family farms.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/920335 650 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/958235 651 0 Montcalm (Man.)|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ no2001037799|xHistory.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh99005024 651 0 Montcalm (Man.)|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ no2001037799|xEconomic conditions.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh99005736 651 0 Montcalm (Man.)|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ no2001037799|xSocial conditions.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2001008850 651 7 Manitoba|zMontcalm.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1293696 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 776 08 |iPrint version:|aSylvester, Kenneth Michael, 1961- |tLimits of rural capitalism.|dToronto ; Buffalo : University of Toronto Press, 2001|z9780802048080|w(DLC) 2001269543|w(OCoLC)45002996 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=468584|zOnline eBook.
