Excerpt from A Biographical Album of Prominent Pennsylvanians: First Series; Statesmen, Military Officers, Journalists, Educators and Prominent Persons Recently Deceased It is but justice to those whose personal histories are recorded in these volumes, to state that no one of them solicited a place in the work, and they furnished data for their sketches and photographs for their portraits, only in response to a pressing invitation given after a careful consideration Of their merit; and it is also just to other prominent men, whose life-records will not be found in these volumes, to admit that many of them are equally worthy of the distinction; but this book is in no sense an encyclopaedia, and the subjects selected must be con sidered as representative Of many others now living or recently deceased. To guard against the fault common to works of this class, of being too unwieldy for convenient reference, the contents have been sub divided into three parts or series: the first, as will be seen, embracing biographical sketches of men distinguished in political and military life, journalists, professors, and men recently deceased; the second, composed largely of representative professional men - lawyers, physi cians and artists; while the third is devoted principally to the active men of the present day, who are prominent in industrial enterprises, commerce, inventions and railroad management.

No state in the entire Nation is richer in Indian names, or in fact, in Indian history than Pennsylvania. These Indian names of Pennsylvania are full of music, but, of far greater importance, they are full of history. A History of the Indian Villages and Place Names in Pennsylvania, which was first published in 1928, is the only major book of the 20th century that traces Pennsylvania’s Indian place and names for their correct form, origin and history. Its pages are filled with the most incredible collection of information ever assembled on the Indian villages of Pennsylvania and their Indian place names and is an Indian history scholar’s delight. In preparing his book, Dr. Donehoo researched every available source of printed material about Indian place names in Pennsylvania. He also walked nearly every Indian trail, from the Delaware to the Ohio, using early trader’s journals and maps as his guide, to seek out the places the Indians lived. Each Indian name comes complete with historical notes by the author. The book includes a list of all the sources used to authenticate each Indian place name. An excellent bibliography follows at the conclusion of the work along with appendixes listing: the Indian villages of New York destroyed by General Sullivan’s army in 1779, prehistoric works in Pennsylvania by county, and an alphabetical listing of all Indian named places in each county.

In Nature's Entrepot, the contributors view the planning, expansion, and sustainability of the urban environment of Philadelphia from its inception to the present. The chapters explore the history of the city, its natural resources, and the early naturalists who would influence future environmental policy. They then follow Philadelphia's growing struggles with disease, sanitation, pollution, sewerage, transportation, population growth and decline, and other byproducts of urban expansion. Later chapters examine efforts in the modern era to preserve animal populations, self-sustaining food supplies, functional landscapes and urban planning, and environmental activism. Philadelphia's place as an early seat of government and major American metropolis has been well documented by leading historians. Now, Nature's Entrepot looks particularly to the human impact on this unique urban environment, examining its long history of industrial and infrastructure development, policy changes, environmental consciousness, and sustainability efforts that would come to influence not just this region but also the nation.
