An essential reference book to the most important and relevant publications on the control of information in the United States, it includes books and articles on every aspect of this highly topical subject--from philosophical theory to the freedom of the press. It is the first bibliography to deal exclusively with this area and will be of interest to all those concerned with research in journalism, law, communications, and general American history.

When cotton was king and Jackson was president, Daniel Hillman built a bloomery forge on Roupes Creek near the Jefferson and Tuscaloosa County line. As the birthplace of the Birmingham Iron and Steel District, the forge grew into an important battery of three blast furnaces capable of producing 22 tons of iron daily for Confederate munitions. The Tannehill Furnaces―the handiwork of Moses Stroup, one of the South’s leading ironmasters―are among the best preserved 19th-century ironworks in America. Along with the Iron and Steel Museum of Alabama, the furnace ruins form the centerpiece of Tannehill Ironworks Historical State Park, which attracts 400,000 visitors annually. It is Alabama’s most visited Civil War site.

Jefferson County Historical Commission

"Tannehill and the Growth of the Alabama Iron Industry" is a beautiful 8" x 11 1/2" book, lavishly illustrated with over 260 photographs and maps.  The story begins with Daniel Hillman, an experienced furnaceman from New Jersey, who located a forge on the banks of Roupes Creek in 1830.  Hillman's Forge would give way to a larger bloomery under management of noted Southern ironmaster Moses Stroup, then to three charcoal blast furnaces that would make the Tannehill site an important center of pig iron production for the Confederacy during the Civil War. As the war drew to an end, units of the 8th Iowa Cavalry raced into the furnace yard on March 31, 1865 and knocked from production one of the Selma Arsenal's most productive iron suppliers.  The battery of high stone furnaces, equipped with hot blast stoves and steam power, was rated at 22 tons a day.  When Croxton's Raiders left the site in flames moving on to Tuscaloosa, the work place where 600 slaves and white mechanics had been busily engaged the day before, fell strangely silent.  From its toppled stones, however, would emerge in the 1870s a place called Birmingham, the "Pittsburgh of the South." The Tannehill site, subject of six major archaeological investigations from 1956 to 1995, would reveal important advances in furnace design conflicting with earlier assumptions that southern iron making during the Civil War was technologically backward. The story then is not an account of magnolias, jasmine and the folkways fiction writers like to use to describe antebellum Alabama.  It is rather a hard look at the struggling iron industry that would bridge one era of iron manufacture to another and in the end give Birmingham the distinction of becoming the South's most heavily industrialized city. In 1976, as part of the American Bicentennial Celebration, Tannehill Furnace No. 1 was re-fired.  It marked the first time in U.S. history, reported the Smithsonian Institute, that an iron furnace, out of blast for over a century, had ever been put back into production.  Today, the Tannehill site is a national metallurgical engineering landmark.
