　　Quaint, charming, nostalgic New England: rustic fishing

villages, romantic seaside cottages, breathtaking mountain vistas,

peaceful rural settings. In Inventing New England, Dona Brown

traces the creation of these calendar-page images and describes how

tourism as a business emerged and came to shape the landscape,

economy, and culture of a region.

By the latter nineteenth century, Brown argues, tourism had

become an integral part of New England's rural economy, and the

short vacation a fixture of middle-class life. Focusing on such

meccas as the White Mountains, Martha's Vineyard, Nantucket,

coastal Maine, and Vermont, Brown describes how failed port cities,

abandoned farms, and even scenery were churned through powerful

marketing engines promoting nostalgia. She also examines the irony

of an industry that was based on an escape from commerce but served

as an engine of industrial development, spawning hotel

construction, land speculation, the spread of wage labor, and a

vast market for guidebooks and other publications.
