Book excerpt: Photographs and description of Donald Grant Mitchell's rural Connecticut home, Edgewood Farm, compiled by the farm's owner of thirteen years. Mitchell had previously published "My farm of Edgewood" in 1863, and felt that those readers would be entertained by another romantic portrait of country life which included Rockwood's charming photographs of the farm, and Mitchell's own description of the improvements he has undertaken and the changes he has wrought "to make an enjoyable and inexpensive country-home...." Having searched New England for an "idyllic gentleman farmer's rural estate, Mitchell finally purchased 200 acres in New Haven, Connecticut in 1855 for $16,000, where he lived for the next 53 years until his death in 1908. Mitchell made many improvements to the farm and house (still standing at 999 Forest Road in New Haven); a new house was built in 1872 at the corner of Edgewood and Forest Roads. Today the property is owned by the Hopkins School, which purchased it in 1921.

Download or read book Edgewood written by Joseph F. Murray and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2012 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Located in southeastern Harford County, Edgewood was established in the mid-1800s as a small village around a train station. It remained small until 1917, when the government took over thousands of acres to create the Edgewood Arsenal military complex. Thousands came to build the arsenal on land previously known for having fertile farms, gentlemen's waterfowl hunting clubs, and one of the earliest meeting places for Methodists in America. World War II brought an even greater increase in military personnel and civilians. Later, numerous housing developments replaced obsolete off-post government buildings. The creation of Route 40 through Edgewood in 1939 and 1940 and the Edgewood exit on Interstate I-95 in 1963 brought travelers and spurred new business.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The acclaimed New York Times and USA TODAY bestselling novel of small-town evil that “is genuinely chilling and something brand-new and exciting” (Stephen King) and “unforgettable” (Harlan Coben). In the summer of 1988, the mutilated bodies of several missing girls begin to turn up in a small Maryland town. The grisly evidence leads police to the terrifying assumption that a serial killer is on the loose in the quiet suburb. But soon a rumor begins to spread that the evil stalking local teens is not entirely human. Law enforcement, as well as members of the FBI, are certain that the killer is a living, breathing madman—and he’s playing games with them. For a once peaceful community trapped in the depths of paranoia and suspicion, it feels like a nightmare that will never end. Recent college graduate Richard Chizmar returns to his hometown just as a curfew is enacted and a neighborhood watch is formed. Amid preparing for his wedding and embarking on a writing career, he soon finds himself thrust into a real-life horror story. Inspired by the terrifying events, Richard writes a personal account of the serial killer’s reign of terror, unaware that these events will continue to haunt him for years to come. A clever, terrifying, and heartrending work of metafiction, Chasing the Boogeyman is the ultimate marriage between horror fiction and true crime. Chizmar’s “dazzling work of fresh imagination and psychological insight” (Caroline Kepnes, New York Times bestselling author of You) is on full display in this truly unique novel that will haunt you long after you turn the final page.
