 Wooden Ships of River John
 
 Canada's Digital Collections. Government of Canada.
«The earliest record of shipbuilding in the Maritimes is 1606, when two small boats were built at Port Royal. It was not until 1751, however, when Governor Cornwallis at Halifax offered a bounty of ten shillings per ton for every new vessel produced, that a native shipbuilding industry was encouraged in the Maritimes provinces, and began to take shape. Substantial increases in population in the late 1700s and early 1800s meant that the building of large ships for the purpose of exporting the region's plentiful resources of timber and fish had become possible.»

 Working in Paterson: Occupational Heritage in an Urban Setting
 
 Library of Congress.
«Working in Paterson: Occupational Heritage in an Urban Setting presents 470 interview excerpts and 3882 photographs from the Working in Paterson Folklife Project of the American Folklife Center at the Library of Congress. The four-month study of occupational culture in Paterson, New Jersey, was conducted in 1994. Paterson is considered to be the cradle of the Industrial Revolution in America. It was founded in 1791 by the Society for Establishing Useful Manufactures (S.U.M.), a group that had U.S. Secretary of the Treasury Alexander Hamilton as an advocate. The basis for Paterson's manufacturing potential was the Great Falls on the Passaic River. Paterson went on to become the largest silk manufacturing center in the nation as well as a leader in the manufacture of many other products, from railroad locomotives to firearms.»
