Résumé :
In Volume One you will find articles such as Norman Rockwell's relationship with Troy, how Troy promoted anti-slavery, the real story of Uncle Sam, and the connection between the early founding of the Boy Scouts and Troy's collar industry, to name a few of the eighteen stories in this edition. Famous as the Collar City, it literally invented the collar and cuff industry in 1827 when Hannah Montague cut off her husband's collar, washed it, and sewed it back on. Trojans made the iron hull plates for the USS Monitor which helped turn the Civil War in favor of the North. Amos Eaton founded the first science/technology college and mentored many of the first geologists of America. The list goes on.

You will find a Trojan in almost every major American historical event from the American Revolution to the Industrial Revolution and beyond....
