Corinth's name, selected from the Bible, was chosen when the township was first incorporated in 1818. Situated perfectly to benefit from the surrounding natural resources, Corinth has a long history as a mill town, processing timber, wool, and grains using the power of the Hudson River. Located at the northern edge of Saratoga County, Corinth has been both a rural agricultural community and an industrial center. It is home to several churches, community organizations, and businesses, as well as one of International Paper's largest mills, which used the Hudson for both transportation and energy generation. Within Corinth, readers will discover the area's past through images of mill workers, schoolchildren, farmers, shopkeepers, and other residents, as well as the homes and businesses they built.

A Plague of Informers

Conspiracy and Political Trust in William III's England

By: Rachel Weil

Stories of plots, sham plots, and the citizen-informers who discovered them are at the center of Rachel Weil's compelling study of the turbulent decade following the Revolution of 1688. Most studies of the Glorious Revolution focus on its causes or long-term effects, but Weil instead zeroes in on the early years when the survival of the new regime was in doubt. By encouraging informers, imposing loyalty oaths, suspending habeas corpus, and delaying the long-promised reform of treason trial procedure, the Williamite regime protected itself from enemies and cemented its bonds with supporters, but also put its own credibility at risk.

The Cities of the Sun: Stories of Ancient America Founded on Historical Incidents in the Book of Mormon

By: Elizabeth Rachel Cannon

The end justifies the means, so these stories are designed to increase interest in the Book of Mormon. Hundreds of books have been written founded on the Bible, and there are some wonderfully colorful accounts of the founding of Christianity in Judea, Alexandria, and Rome. It is surprising that more has not been done dealing with the ancient history of the western world. Several of these stories were first published in the Improvement Era, and acknowledgement is made to that magazine for the encouragement it extended to the author, who traveled twice to Mexico and excavated amon the ruins there to gain information at first hand. If any boy or girl, after perusing these pages, is inspired to turn direct to the beautiful and simple language of the Book of Mormon itself, the purpose of "The Cities of the Sun" has been accomplished.
