This publication came to fruition as part of an exhibit at the Hagley Museum entitled "The Workers' World: The Industrial Village and the Company Town." Like the rest of that exhibit, it represents the joint labors of the staffs of the Museum and of the Regional Economic History Research Center at Hagley. Although the exhibit includes materials on the lives and work of the inhabitants of many industrial villages and company towns, this booklet focuses on a single industrial village - the Brandywine powder-making community founded by Éleuthère Irénée du Pont in 1802.
