Description

Carefulness along with great skill in historical investigation and enviable talents in composition made this excellent history possible. Boyd Crumrine, with the help of several other gentlemen, took painstaking precautions to see that this book was as accurate and complete as possible. They deliberately chose to present original documents, in full or by quotation, rather than to paraphrase their contents in their own language. Very detailed oriented. The contents of this book is intended to portray the development of the county, side-by-side with the history of its past. It includes portraits and biographical sketches of representative men of each era, as well as illustrations of their homes and their surroundings, showing the county at the time this book was first printed in 1882.… (more)
