The story of Hartford's water works is a fascinating one, for it recalls the hard work, great sacrifice, and extraordinary engineering feats necessary to deliver wholesome drinking water to a growing urban center. It also illuminates the ever-changing social, political, and economic...

Prostitution In The Gilded Age: The Jennie Hollister Story

Fannie Porter's San Antonio, Texas, brothel was a...

In a 1907 lecture to Harvard undergraduates, Theodore Roosevelt warned against becoming "too fastidious, too sensitive to take part in the rough hurly-burly of the actual work of the world."

Murphy reveals how the popular ideals of American masculinity...
