In April 1609, Hudson set off on his ship, the Halve Maen (Half Moon), but quickly reached treacherous, ice-filled waters above Norway. Choosing to disobey his instructions rather than admit defeat, he crossed the Atlantic Ocean to Nova Scotia and then roughly followed the coastline south to North Carolina before reversing course again and heading up what’s now called the Hudson River.

In northern states, where the combined effects of the transport boom, urbanization, and the growth of production were strongly felt, these developments were more visible. A tiny, rich proportion of the population in northern cities dominated a significant segment of the economy, while the poor workers whose numbers were swelling with large-scale immigration possessed little to no assets. Those who already owned it remained concentrating money, despite the "range-to-rich" stories that were common at the time. Social mobility opportunities have been restricted,
