Reps, John. Tidewater Towns: City Planning in Colonial Virginia and Maryland. Williamsburg, VA: Colonial Williamsburg Foundation, 1972.
Notes: Early towns did not generally spring out of nowhere. Town planning was common and an important part of Chesapeake Maryland's colonial history. The government played an active role in the founding and formation of towns. Annapolis and the District of Columbia were unique in that their plans did not resemble those common amongst other English colonies.

Sechrist, Stephanie. Silver Spring, Maryland: Residential Development of a Washington Suburb, 1920 to 1955. M.A. Thesis, George Washington University, 1994.
Notes: Many suburban communities had origins in streetcar or railroad growth. Silver Spring, however, was a community whose growth was determined by the automobile. Sechrist identifies three development stages. Also, as a suburb of the District of Columbia, Silver Spring grew during periods of strife for other communities, i.e. during the Depression and World War II.
