About the book

"Just a century ago, white-collar jobs were new, and their future was anything but certain. In Company Men Clark Davis places the corporate office at the heart of American social and cultural history, examining how the nation's first generation of white-collar men created new understandings of masculinity, race, community, and success - all of which would dominate American experience for decades to come.". "Of interest to students of business history, gender studies, and twentieth-century culture, this work focuses on the "company man" as a pivotal actor in the saga of modern American history."--BOOK JACKET.

First sentence: In October 1876, James and Mary Crank "bade good-bye to the East" and embarked on a week-long journey to a new life in California, a land they described as "a far country."
