Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1788, the first settlers were drawn to the region of central Vermont now known as Barre by the area's 19,900 acres of rolling hills and valleys and its granite, water, forest, and fertile soil. The industrial growth of Barre depended on these resources. The Stevens Branch stream gave life to a number of mills, manufacturing companies, and granite-polishing works. Joshua Thwing built the first grain mill, and William Moorcroft started the first woolen mill to manufacture white flannel. The granite business began developing in 1812 and grew to be the chief industry in town, bringing immigrants from around the world to work in the quarries and sheds. One such settler was William Foster Milne, who arrived in 1907 and went on to organize the first Boy Scout troop in America. Today, visitors come from all over the world to visit the Rock of Ages Visitors' Center and quarry tour, Hope Cemetery, the Barre Opera House, Thunder Road SpeedBowl, and the Vermont Granite Museum.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On December 17, 2005, the city of Barre lost four kids and their mom in the worst fire the city has ever had. Just before Christmas in an apartment protected by three working smoke detectors, this family never got out. In fact, this family never even knew there was a fire until it was too late. The only person able to get out was only able to by chance. Of all the things this individual said after the fire, most disturbing was the lack of any smoke alarms sounding. An apartment full of toxic smoke with working smoke alarms and yet they all remained silent. That morning was filled with devastation, triumph, acts of incredible heroism and bravery, an injured firefighter and four others almost making the ultimate sacrifice. Everyone who was there had their own lives torn apart and will never be the same again. This fire rocked our community to its core and yet it’s a scenario that is played out all over the world. In the months that followed this fire, we learned why the smoke alarms didn’t sound. We also learned why smoke alarms all over the world will not sound today, leaving all the occupants in extreme danger should their home burn. This is not only a story about some of the greatest men and women on the face of this earth, but a tribute to the victims from that morning. Inside, you will learn what they didn’t know so that you can protect your family from the risk of fire. At the end of the day, these people will have died so that you may live.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2013 Laura Ingalls Wilder Award Rosa’s mother is singing again, for the first time since Papa died in an accident in the mills. But instead of filling their cramped tenement apartment with Italian lullabies, Mamma is out on the streets singing union songs, and Rosa is terrified that her mother and older sister, Anna, are endangering their lives by marching against the corrupt mill owners. After all, didn’t Miss Finch tell the class that the strikers are nothing but rabble-rousers—an uneducated, violent mob? Suppose Mamma and Anna are jailed or, worse, killed? What will happen to Rosa and little Ricci? When Rosa is sent to Vermont with other children to live with strangers until the strike is over, she fears she will never see her family again. Then, on the train, a boy begs her to pretend that he is her brother. Alone and far from home, she agrees to protect him . . . even though she suspects that he is hiding some terrible secret. From a beloved, award-winning author, here is a moving story based on real events surrounding an infamous 1912 strike.
