Step into Circleville when its streets were still young and the Ohio frontier was alive with promise. History lives in these pages. In Circleville Reminiscences: A Description of Circleville, Ohio (1825-1840); Also an Account of the 115-Year Old Sister of Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry, David Knowlton Webb captures 19th century local history at the very moment a Midwest pioneer settlement was becoming a thriving town. Blending memory, observation and community lore, this Circleville, Ohio history book traces everyday pioneer life in Ohio between 1825 and 1840: businesses and churches, schools and social customs, the shaping of a distinctive circular town, and the personalities who gave it character. Webb's portrait of the remarkable centenarian sister of naval hero Oliver Hazard Perry links early 19th century Ohio to the wider currents of the War of 1812 era and the Oliver Hazard Perry family. A rare primary source and an engaging narrative, this practical Ohio local history book serves readers interested in American historical reminiscences as well as those conducting genealogy research reference work on families and places in and around Circleville. Often consulted as a resource for local historians, it preserves names, episodes and impressions that illuminate how 1825 to 1840 Circleville fitted into the broader story of early 19th century Ohio and other Midwest pioneer settlements. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure.
