What Has Changed in the Last Century
Collier's gave Lodi in Lombardy about 28,000 people in 1921 and left it inside the province of Milan; in 1992 Italy carved out a new Province of Lodi with the town as its capital, and the population is now around 45,000. The cheese trade Collier's praised survives, though the local hard cheese is now sold under the protected name Grana Padano rather than as Parmesan. The New Jersey borough has grown fastest of all: from 8,175 at the 1920 census to roughly 24,000 today, its silk-dyeing works long gone. The 1796 bridge fight and the ruin of Lodi Vecchio in 1111 and 1158 stand as described.
