Comments and Context
With the turn of the century, there were many assessments and reassessments of America’s place in the world. One aspect, much noted in reports, abstracts, political speeches, and financial forecasts, is that by 1901 the United States had become the world’s leader in manufacturing. This fact mirrored the business activity and general patterns of consumption in the domestic economy. Also it fueled exports, joining American agricultural goods to serve receptive world markets.
