The North Fork has become an exemplar

spreading beyond the big coastal cities,
driving much of rural population growth

R. Gordon illustrates how small-town
America has been revitalized by the arrival
of these immigrants in Greenport, where
she lives. Diana R. Gordon is professor emerita of political
science and criminal justice at the City University of New York.
