Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Old Colony Railroad: Its Connections, Popular Resorts, and Fashionable Watering-Places The Old Colony Railroad, opened in 1845 from Boston to Plymouth, Mass. (371/2 miles), and from Fall River, Mass., to Myricks, Mass. (12 miles), now comprises 300 miles of line, extending from Boston, the metropolis of New England, to Newport, R.I., and to all the principal cities, towns and villages of South-eastern Massachusetts; and, by its connecting lines of steamboats, forming the most desirable and popular route between New York and Boston, and the famous summer resorts of the beautiful islands of Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard. A glance at the map in front shows the two lines between Boston and Newport (via Randolph, Stoughton, Easton, Taunton, Dighton, and Somerset; and via Brockton, Bridgewater, and Middleboro', converging in one line at Fall River); the line to Provincetown (the end of Cape Cod); the line to Woods Hole (the mainland terminus of the Vineyard and Nantucket steamers); the line to "Plymouth Rock," passing through the Abingtons, Plympton, and Kingston; the Sea-Shore Line, through Quincy, Braintree, Weymouth, Hingham, Nantasket, Cohasset, the Scituates, Marshfield (the home of Webster), and South Duxbury (the American station of the "French Cable") to, and intersecting, the Plymouth line at Kingston; and the suburban "Shawmut," "Milton," and "Granite" Branches. The terminal stations at Boston are complete in all their parts. Their ample proportions are demanded by the heavy business of the road. The rush of passengers, coming and going, is immense.

Book excerpt: Through the mid-nineteenth century, the US whaling industry helped drive industrialization and urbanization, providing whale oil to lubricate and illuminate the country. The Pennsylvania petroleum boom of the 1860s brought cheap and plentiful petroleum into the market, decimating whale oil's popularity. Here, from our modern age of fossil fuels, Jamie L. Jones uses literary and cultural history to show how the whaling industry held firm in US popular culture even as it slid into obsolescence. Jones shows just how instrumental whaling was to the very idea of "energy" in American culture and how it came to mean a fusion of labor, production, and the circulation of power. She argues that dying industries exert real force on environmental perceptions and cultural imaginations. Analyzing a vast archive that includes novels, periodicals, artifacts from whaling ships, tourist attractions, and even whale carcasses, Jones explores the histories of race, labor, and energy consumption in the nineteenth-century United States through the lens of the whaling industry's legacy. In terms of how they view power, Americans are, she argues, still living in the shadow of the whale.
