This book is taken from early newspaper reports about the events that occurred that changed the limestone of Bedford Indiana from an occassional quarried item that was hauled to market by ox team to thousands of train carloads of limestone being sent to locations all over the eastern part of the United States. The time period covered is from 1850, when all quarrying was accomplished with labor intensive hand tools, to 1900, when the industry was mainly operated by steam power and heavy duty machinery. Some discussion is made of early jobs that help "make the industry". These include the Chicago City Hall, Chicago Court House, Indiana State Capital, Vanderbilt Mansions, and stone shipped for use at Ellis Island and the Library of Congress. The book also cronicles some of the day to day problems, wage scales paid and improvements made in methods and machinery as they occurred in the industrry.

Constructed in 11 months, the Empire State Building was a marvel of modern engineering. Its frame rose more than a story a day--no comparable building since has managed that rate of ascent. In "Building the Empire State", a rediscovered 1930s notebook charts the construction of this crowning achievement. Illustrations.

Celibeth Jones wore a mans heavy denim jacket, coveralls, and a pair of scuffed brogans. Thick, gray hair straggled from beneath a tattered stocking cap. She walked briskly, resolutely, looking neither to the right nor to the left; her bushy, black eyebrows were knitted together in a permanent scowl. Is she angry about something? Henon asked. Oh, yeah, Otis answered. I was hoping to have friendly neighbors. Henon stared unabashedly as the elderly woman passed the barbershop window. Celibeth glared back at him. Wow! If looks could kill, Id be dead. Shes positively intimidating. You better be intimidated, Otis said grimly. She killed her husband. Otis! Hezekiah threw the newspaper down on the floor. And got away with it, Parker chimed in. Hezekiah slammed the door on his way out of the shop.
