Bowie and Montague County, Texas, Images of America, Paperback Bowie, the “Little Wonder of the West,” grew from a tent city to the largest town in Montague County in just one year’s time. This entrepreneurial spirit led to ideas such as the Chicken and Bread Boys, the M. Johnson Poultry Ranch, and Second Monday Trade Days. Bowie, Montague, Saint Jo, Nocona, Ringgold, Sunset, and Forestburg, along with the other hundred or so communities that made up Montague County, offered a unique slice of Americana and individualism. Their history collectively provides a unique look at the taming of the Western frontier, including a proud Native American culture, the Chisholm Trail, the Butterfield Stage, and promises of streets paved with gold. Over time, the smaller communities of the county faded and merged with the larger ones, leaving only memories of places such as Uz, Gladys, and Rip.

Cornell University, New York, Campus History, Paperback
Cornell University, New York, Campus History, Paperback Cornell University in Ithaca, New York, was founded after the Civil War as a great experiment: a nonsectarian, coeducational institution where “any person can find instruction in any study.”In the mid-19th century, there were only a handful of colleges that accepted women and even fewer that were nonsectarian. The university charter specifically states that “persons of every religious denomination or of no religious denomination, shall be equally eligible to all offices and appointments.” Today, with colleges of hotel management and labor relations added to the more traditional majors in liberal arts, engineering, business, agriculture, and architecture, Cornell – both an Ivy League university and state land-grant college – truly offers a diverse program of study for a diverse collection of students.

Children’s Memorial Hospital of Chicago
Children’s Memorial Hospital of Chicago In 1886, the state-of-the-art surgery room of Truman W. Miller, MD, in Chicago’s first children’s hospital had no electric lights, no antibiotics, limited equipment, and only the most rudimentary anesthesia. This renowned surgeon served on a voluntary basis as president of an all-volunteer medical staff from 1882 to 1900. The hospital opened in 1882 as an eight-bed cottage in Lincoln Park, when pediatrics was in its infancy. It was at the forefront then, and it continues to be among the country’s best. For over a century, it was called Children’s Memorial Hospital, and it was renamed Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago in 2012, when it moved to a 288-bed facility in the heart of the city. The hospital’s history reflects the steady advances in pediatrics, propelled by visionary individuals, pioneering clinicians, and the community–all dedicated to the care and well-being of children.
New Brighton, Pennsylvania, Images of America, Paperback
New Brighton, Pennsylvania, Images of America, Paperback New Brighton’s unique and rich history dates back to 1788. Its location on the Beaver River attracted industries, such as the Townsend Company, Wilson’s Mill, Sherwood Pottery, Standard Horse Nail, Dawes and Myler, and the Pittsburgh Wallpaper Company, and brought immigrants in search of employment to the thriving community. Some businesses that supported the growing town were Kenah’s Apothecary, Milo Wilson’s Butterine store, Bestwick Hardware, A.D. Gilliland Dry Goods, Ewing Brothers, and Stuart Magee’s grocery. Notable citizens included Edward Dempster Merrick, a 19th-century entrepreneur who founded the Merrick Art Gallery; author and journalist Grace Greenwood; and the famous Noss family. New Brighton opens a window to an era of bustling businesses and industries, Junction Park, school days, and yesteryear modes of transportation. It also gives a rare look inside the house known locally as the “Castle,” built in 1894 by 19th-century industrialist Frederick Merrick.
