"A well-conceived and well-argued book that is essential reading
for those interested in the study of community building." --Journal
of American History "This study is important for both frontier and
urban historians. It is well written, thoroughly documented, and
illustrated in an informative manner. One may hope that future
studies of other nineteenth century American towns will be
completed with the competence and style of this excellent
volume."Â --The Old Northwest "For one who has lived in
Jacksonville as I have, reading this book stirred fond memories and
answered lingering questions about this town. . . . As a capsule
study of an unusual Illinois community renowned for its past,
Doyle's book makes for fascinating reading."Â --Civil War
