Clever and insightful, Tales of Phoenixville is a fun read full of fascinating and little-known facts. Starting with Ice Age mammoth hunters, these exciting stories include tales of the local Native Americans, the first Colonists, the Revolutionary War, the Sundance Kid, Harry Houdini, The Blob, and, of course, the famous Phoenix Iron and Steel Company. Spanning more than 400 years of history, this compelling collection of historical fiction provides the reader with a fresh perspective on life and historical events in this small, rural Pennsylvania town.
