| Summary: | "Today a visitor to America should travel across the length and breadth of this country to witness the strength and vitality of its workers, its diversity of industry, its architecture and its institutions. One hundred and fifty years ago, or even a hundred years ago, a visit to Union County would have served the same purpose. For the history of our County mirrors the growth and development of the American nation. . . .Truly, the history of Union County before 1900 was a national phenomenon being repeated in countless towns and villages. A visitor to America in 1850 could register at the Cameron House, and, by renting a fast horse, find the heart and pulse of America in the owns and on the farms of Union County."--Foreword. |
