J. Fletcher Williams' "History of St. Paul," first published in
1876, is a thoroughly charming, intimate chronicle of the city's
earliest years. The author spins tales of villains, heroes, dark
deeds, and progress with wit, irony, and relish. Sprinkled among
the careful descriptions of pioneers, city fathers, and important
events is a healthy dose of trivia, oddities, and "firsts." Lucile
M. Kane's introduction to this edition suggests that the book "to
an unusual degree mirrors the man--with all his learning, passion
for patient investigation, interest in people, exuberance, dramatic
sense, humor, and affection for his adopted city." Minnesota
residents, visitors, and students of history will enjoy this
insider's view of small-town St. Paul in the 19th century.
