Viac o knihe

The arrival of the train in 1848 marked a pivotal change for New Rochelle, transforming it from a quiet agricultural area into a thriving suburban hub. By the early 20th century, its appeal as a residential community grew, thanks to its proximity to Broadway, scenic waterfront, and a burgeoning retail scene. The population surged to 54,000 by 1930, fueled by commuter rails and the automobile. This vibrant community attracted influential figures across various fields, including artist Norman Rockwell and suffragist Carrie Chapman Catt, contributing to its rich cultural legacy.
