Book Description

Excerpt from A History of Evansville and Vanderburgh County, Indiana Now, the information caught up and recorded here for present and future generations is not the work of an hour, but, in a sense, ofa life time. As the work progressed the writer was more and more im pressed with its significance and magnitude. It grew on his hands. He has not followed the Old stereotyped formula of delivering himself of local affairs and events, but has, like a pioneer, blazed out a way of his own. It is his fond hope that some good may be done in this work, some help be extended to some one in some way.
