Farmers and Fishermen: Two Centuries of Work in Essex County, Massachusetts, 1630–1850
In the book, Vickers examines how a patriarchal system that relied on the unpaid labor of dependent sons transitioned gradually to an economic system in which these sons found work outside of the family farm.[6] For fishermen, he explores the shift from client-patron economic relations to a free market system, noting the difficulties fishermen faced in achieving economic independence in both systems.[2]
In the 1997 film Good Will Hunting, the title character cites the book during a history-of-economics debate in a Harvard Square barroom.[7]
