This detailed historical account explores the roots development and achievements of distributive and service cooperatives over a span of 125 years. The book delves into the social economic and political factors that influenced the cooperative movement highlighting key figures events and milestones. Parker meticulously documents the cooperative principles organizational structures and community benefits that defined this period. Rich in historical context and analysis this work provides invaluable insights for historians economists and those interested in the cooperative model as a force for social change. -- "Perhaps no observer of the cooperative movement is more qualified to write a definitive history and analysis of the development of consumer cooperation in America than Florence Parker. For more than 30 years until her retirement in 1952 as specialist on cooperatives for the Bureau of Labor Statistics she conducted periodic studies of the principal types of consumers' cooperatives. This volume is virtually an encyclopedia of consumers' cooperative history and development in the United States. Although a devoted supporter of the cooperative movement and an active participant in many cooperatives Miss Parker's enthusiasm has fortunately not tempered her objectivity. Interspersed in her presentation of a wealth of historical detail are incisive appraisals of the difficulties cooperators have faced in the peculiar American environment as well as the pitfalls that are still before them. Past cooperative failures are discussed and present shortcomings in the consumers' cooperative movement are analyzed. Miss Parker points out that despite modest growth in recent years urban consumer cooperative membership is still largely confined to upper middle-class families. By and large industrial workers have not been attracted to membership or even patronage of cooperatives. Cited as one evidence of this is the lack of vigorous support of trade unions.
