Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The New Jersey railway station was bitterly cold that night in 1910. The name of Nelson Aldrich, senator from Rhode Island, was well known even in New Jersey. He was considered to be the political spokesman for big business. #2 The roster of the Aldrich car that night was Nelson W. Aldrich, Republican whip in the Senate and chairman of the National Monetary Commission, business associate of J. P. Morgan, father-in-law to John D. Rockefeller, Jr. #3 By 1913, the year that the Federal Reserve Act was passed, a subcommittee of the House Committee on Currency and Banking completed its investigation into the concentration of financial power in the United States. The report was devastating: the men who through their control over the funds of our railroad and industrial companies were able to direct where those funds were kept, were the ones who were in a position to tap those reservoirs for their ventures. #4 The seven men who gathered in secret that night and traveled in the luxury of Senator Aldrich’s private car were largely responsible for the development of the practical and effective domination and control over our major financial, railroad, and industrial corporations.

PULITZER PRIZE WINNER • Drawing on the diaries of one woman in eighteenth-century Maine, "A truly talented historian unravels the fascinating life of a community that is so foreign, and yet so similar to our own" (The New York Times Book Review). Between 1785 and 1812 a midwife and healer named Martha Ballard kept a diary that recorded her arduous work (in 27 years she attended 816 births) as well as her domestic life in Hallowell, Maine. On the basis of that diary, Laurel Thatcher Ulrich gives us an intimate and densely imagined portrait, not only of the industrious and reticent Martha Ballard but of her society. At once lively and impeccably scholarly, A Midwife's Tale is a triumph of history on a human scale.
