Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book analyzes the differing reproductive trends across American racial, national and social groups between 1850 and 1930. The author demonstrates that the American population was already beginning to slow its growth in the 1920s, due to declining birth rates. By 1930, fertility was at replacement levels for the white population as a whole. However, significant variations existed across groups, with native whites in rural areas having much higher birth rates than urban whites or non-white populations. The author argues that these differentials are likely to persist indefinitely unless means are found for their social control. The book provides a comprehensive overview of population trends in the United States during a period of significant social and economic change, and its insights remain relevant to contemporary discussions about population growth and the changing composition of American society.
