"In this program, the animated story centers on a small New England community similar to Pawtucket, Rhode Island, where the first textile mill in America was established. The live action segments go from Manchester, England, to Lowell, Mass, showing technological changes that transformed the making of cloth (textiles), which became a key component of the "Industrial Revolution" that swept across Europe and America in the late 1700's. That revolution also brought formidable social changes that altered the way people worked and were organized for work, how they were paid for their work, and how communities grew and developed in the wake of mills. Also shows the real boarding houses and the sights and deafening sounds of the giant textile mills of Lowell, Mass."
