Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chauncey Jerome (1793-1868) was a Clockmaker in the early 1800s. He made a fortune selling his clocks. Jerome began his career in Waterbury, making dials for long-case clocks (grandfather clocks). Jerome learned what he could about clocks; particularly clock cases, and then went to New Jersey to make seven-foot cases for clocks. By 1837 Jerome's company was selling more clocks than any of his competitors. Jerome had made a historic contribution to his industry when he substituted brass works for wooden works. This is the story of Jerome's life as a clock maker.

Book excerpt: The magnificent artistry and craftmanship of eighteenth and nineteenth century clockmakers in the South has been recorded in this lavishly illustrated volume. Entitled Dixie Clockmakers, the 192-page volume traces the development of clockmaking and horological history below the Mason-Dixon line and documents the works of those artisans who designed and constructed some of the world's finest timepieces. Author James W. Gibbs focuses primarily upon clockmaking in Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and the District of Columbia, but attention also is given to eight other states. Included are some 60 photographs illustrating outstanding examples and details of Southern clockmaking. The first in-depth study of Southern clockmakers, the volume also lists every known clockmaker and watchmaker in the South during the two centuries, along with nomenclature common at the time, and advertisements used by individual craftsmen.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A master storyteller presents a riveting drama of America's first "crime of the century"--from murder investigation to a church sex scandal to celebrity trial--and its aftermath. In December 1832 a farmer found the body of a young, pregnant woman hanging near a haystack outside a New England mill town. When news spread that Methodist preacher Ephraim Avery was accused of murdering Sarah Maria Cornell, a factory worker, the case gave the public everything they found irresistible: sexually charged violence, adultery, the hypocrisy of a church leader, secrecy and mystery, and suspicions of insanity. Murder in a Mill Town tells the story of how a local crime quickly turned into a national scandal that became America's first "trial of the century." After her death--after she became the country's most notorious "factory girl"--Cornell's choices about work, survival, and personal freedom became enmeshed in stories that Americans told themselves about their new world of industry and women's labor and the power of religion in the early republic. Writers penned seduction tales, true-crime narratives, detective stories, political screeds, songs, poems, and melodramatic plays about the lurid scandal. As trial witnesses, ordinary people gave testimony that revealed rapidly changing times. As the controversy of Cornell's murder spread beyond the courtroom, the public eagerly devoured narratives of moral deviance, abortion, suicide, mobs, "fake news," and conspiracy politics. Long after the jury's verdict, the nation refused to let the scandal go. A meticulously reconstructed historical whodunit, Murder in a Mill Town exposes the troublesome workings of criminal justice in the young democracy and the rise of a sensational popular culture.
