Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This true crime history chronicles more than a century in the life of a small Midwestern city with an outsized reputation for violence and vice. Gambling, prostitution and bootlegging have been going on in Steubenville for well over century. In its heyday, the city’s Water Street red-light district drew men from hundreds of miles away, as well as underage runaways. The white slave trade was rampant, and along with all the vice crimes, murders became a weekly occurrence. This revealing history chronicles the rise of Steubenville’s prodigious underworld from the 1890s to the modern day. By the turn of the century, Steubenville’s law enforcement seemed to turn a blind eye, and cries of political corruption were heard in the state capital. This scenario replayed itself over and over again during the past century as mobsters and madams ruled and murders plagued the city and surrounding county at an alarming rate. Newspapers nationwide would come to nickname this mecca of murder "Little Chicago."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Guy is not only a historian but a longtime police officer in Ohio, bringing firsthand knowledge of the criminal justice system” to the Phantom Killer tale (Crime Capsule). Prohibition ended on December 5, 1933, and Steubenville hoped that its reputation as “Little Chicago” would end with it. That hope was short-lived when, eight weeks later, the Phantom Killer made his midnight debut. Under the glow of a full moon, in the mill yards of Steubenville’s Wheeling Steel Plant, the killer ambushed a rail worker, shooting him five times. The Steubenville Police Department, Jefferson County Sheriff’s Department and Wheeling Steel Mill Police joined forces in the New Year to find the Phantom before he took another victim. The strongest of millworkers on the midnight shift began to arm themselves, wondering who would be next. As the investigation wore on, Steubenville was once again thrust into the national spotlight as the Phantom’s reign of terror continued. Local historian Susan M. Guy delves into one of the city’s most infamous crimes.

This book was released on 2018-04-23 with total page 580 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from 20th Century History of Steubenville and Jefferson County, Ohio and Representative Citizens F. W. Putnam remarked upon the distinct nose with which the patina or Velvety ox idation had been preserved, indicative of the conditions in which it was said to have been found, and in itself bearing evidence of great antiquity. F. H. Cashing, the t'muous Zuni ethnologist, declared that there could he no question that it was a finished implement and not a reject and that not only had it been finished by careful chipping all along the. Edge, but it had been finished twice, having been at least once reshaped upon its cutting edge and, what is of special significance, that it had been sharpened not by the more modern processes in which the chips were broken from the edge by pressing against it with a piece of bone, but by the older process of striking against the edge with another stone. The type of the implement also was pronounced by M r. Cashing to be the earliest known, althou h from the con venience of the form it as always con tinued in use. It was one, however, which appeared at the very dawn ot' human development. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
