Despite their intentions, almost nothing works out as Jefferson and his followers planned. During their years in power, the young republic develops in ways they could not have envisioned. The most striking aspect of American society in these early decades is its extraordinary economic vitality and growth, and the increasing sophistication and diversification of its productive power. The North industrializes very rapidly. Its cities are compact with the workplace only a few blocks away or a cottage industry in the home. The invention of the cotton gin transforms the agricultural economy of the South, and expands Northern the industrial bases. Men's and women's lives change with industrialization, but it's women's lives that change most dramatically, especially for the poor.
