Ottumwa, Iowa has been a river town from the moment settlers chose the spot along the banks of the Des Moines River in 1844. Islands come and go; water levels rise and fall; floods sweep through; bridges are built, taken down, and rebuilt. The river changes and even moves, but it continues to provide water, food, and fun, supporting industry and transportation – and remaining the heart of the community.

For more information about the collection, which has been called the largest and best-documented privately-owned photography collection in the world, visit www.mlemberger.com.

Ranging from quirky to tender, from funny to touching, from captivating to whimsical, from sweet to outright sly, this collection of short stories includes something for everyone. More than twenty stories display the many moods of Bill Spradley as his good-humored heroes travel from the United States to the Netherlands to Spain and beyond, eating, drinking, occasionally carousing, and falling in and out of love – or lust, as the case may be.

A hundred of his photographs, originally published as a set, are now shown in color, along with postcard images and rare black and white photos of the fair.

Established at the start of the 20th century, the small mining town of Buxton displayed a degree of racial integration unheard of elsewhere in the nation. Black and white miners worked side by side digging coal in the Monroe County hills; black and white clerks manned the company store; black and white students shared classrooms. Buxton flourished for two decades, but by the 1920s the coal mines had played out and residents moved on. Though the town has long been abandoned, the memories, heritage, and ideals of Buxton live on. BUXTON BRANCHES includes the most complete set of birth records in existence for the town. It is a companion book to BUXTON ROOTS, which includes marriage, death, cemetery and census records.
