Description

Explore the gripping narrative of The Stillwater Tragedy, an 1880 classic by Thomas Bailey Aldrich. Renowned as an American poet, novelist, and editor, Aldrichs fame arguably rests on his semi-autobiographical novel, The Story of a Bad Boy, and his anthology of short stories, Majorie Daw and Other People. Set in a quiet New England manufacturing town, The Stillwater Tragedy unveils a community thrown into chaos by a murder and a subsequent all-encompassing trade union strike. Follow the journey of Richard Shackford, the nephew of the murdered man, as he finds himself entangled in the turbulent events that shake his town to its core. (Summary by J. M. Smallheer)
