nTucked away in the dark forests of Vermonts Northeast nKingdom, St. Johnsbury was mostly unbroken wilderness nwhen first chartered in 1786. Swinging axes soon made way nfor the burgeoning split-level town, with stately Main Street nhomes on St. Johnsbury Plain presiding in grandeur over the nbustling commerce of Railroad Street below. Peggy Pearl brings na decidedly human element to this comprehensive history, nwandering the graves of Mount Pleasant Cemetery and bringing nto life the stories of those tanners, cobblers, millworkers and nbrick makers who made St. Johnsbury their home. With excerpts from vintage newspapers like the Caledonian-Record and the Farmers Herald, Pearl unfolds the transformation from quiet mill town into picturesque manufacturing hub of Caledonia County
