Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Once a part of Charlestown that could only be reached via The Neck (present-day Sullivan Square), Somerville became accessible from Boston with the construction of the Middlesex Canal and the extension of various rail lines in the mid- to late nineteenth century. By 1842, Somervilles population had increased to the point that the town officially separated itself from Charlestown. Over the years, the population continued to grow. With the increase in population came tremendous change, including the subdivision of farms and estates for residential neighborhoods. The city of Somerville was incorporated in 1871, and the bucolic borough became the beloved hometown of many residents over the next century. Described by Mayor Edward Glines as healthy, morally clean, comfortable and convenient, Somerville has thrived for years as an attractive, modern residential neighborhood.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Somerville as It Really Is Along with the many natural advantages of Somerville that go to make up a most beautiful and healthful section of New Jersey, peculiarly adapted to the metropolitan home-seeker, are the business opportunities that have been taken advantage of in the past by hustling young men, and which enterprises are now on the safe road to success. These young men have in the past ten years built up mercantile establishments in Somerville that rank high in every particular, with the stores of the city merchants. By their business methods they have brought thousands of dollars' worth of new business to Somerville, and each year sees a larger investment of capital in a number of the growing institutions. Somerville stores in every line are models of practical modern business methods and every article on the market, from a paper of pins to the highest priced automobile, can be purchased on Main Street at prices many times less than the same goods are sold for in the city markets. Since Somerville's younger generation took hold of business enterprises, which even extended to the local government, which within a year has been changed from the antiquated town form to the modern borough act, things have been booming. By judicious advertising Somerville merchants have thoroughly succeeded in making it known that tills is the place to shop, and every day one can see hundreds of people from the surrounding country come here in wagons, automobiles, trolleys and trains. They go home laden with packages of goods purchased here. There is a variety of merchandise manufactured here that is sold all over the world. Orders for goods from Japan, Russia and even from distant Africa have been manufactured here for some time. The largest concern in the borough is the Somerville Iron Works, which are now paying out in wages to their employees, about one quarter million dollars per year. They manufacture soil pipe which is shipped all over the country. The Carbon Stove and Range Company have shipped their ranges to many foreign countries, and are constantly receiving orders from all over the United States.

Download or read book The January Man written by Christopher Somerville and published by Random House. This book was released on 2017-01-12 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Evocatively written and charming' - Countryfile 'The January Man is a book that makes you want to pull on your boots, grab a map and get out there' - Country Life The January Man is the story of a year of walks that was inspired by a song, Dave Goulder's 'The January Man'. Month by month, season by season and region by region, Christopher Somerville walks the British Isles, following routes that continually bring his father to mind. As he travels the country - from the winter floodlands of the River Severn to the lambing pastures of Nidderdale, the towering seabird cliffs on the Shetland Isle of Foula in June and the ancient oaks of Sherwood Forest in autumn - he describes the history, wildlife, landscapes and people he encounters, down back lanes and old paths, in rain and fair weather. This exquisitely written account of the British countryside not only inspires us to don our boots and explore the 140,000 miles of footpaths across the British Isles, but also illustrates how, on long-distance walks, we can come to an understanding of ourselves and our fellow walkers. Over the hills and along the byways, Christopher Somerville examines what moulded the men of his father's generation - so reticent about their wartime experiences, so self-effacing, upright and dutiful - as he searches for 'the man inside the man' that his own father really was.
