An endangered New England agriculture gave impetus to that region's manufacturing sector. This book is written with the parallels between 1816 and our current 'climate change' in mind: it introduces informed non-specialists to the myriad of social, psychological, political, demographic, and economic consequences which can be brought about by abrupt change"--  |c Provided by publisher
