“Company town.” The words evoke images of rough-and-tumble loggers and gritty miners, of dreary shacks in isolated villages, of wages paid in scrip good only at price-gouging company stores of paternalistic employers. But these stereotypes are outdated, especially for those company towns that flourished well into the twentieth century. This new edition updates the status of the surviving towns and how they have changed in the fifteen years since the original edition, and what new life has been created on the sites of the ones that were razed. In the preface, Linda Carlson reflects on how wonderful it has been to meet people who lived in these towns, or had parents who did, and to hear about their memorable experiences.

For too long small businesses within various communities have been overlooked and lacked the recognition and respect they deserve. When hundreds of individuals were polled most felt that small businesses could be as competitive in the business arena as larger national chains when given the opportunity. Today, small business owners in the Pacific Northwest are being given the opportunity. Swannee Rivers, developer of Women's Showcases in the Renton Community has created a business directory showcasing these hidden treasures recognized by the public as being special. Residents can now learn of new businesses within their communities, discover others in Northwest regions, receive valuable business tips. Business owners can also network with each other and support each other by discovering who else is in business. It is an opportunity for uniting that is long overdue. The emergence of small businesses will create synergy helping each to reach their full potential.
