“A chilling chronicle of local true-life murders that reach back into the long-forgotten seamy history of Worcester County” (Vitality Magazine). The bucolic image of central Massachusetts belies a dark and sometimes deadly past. Grisly crimes and grim misdeeds reach back to colonial settlement in Worcester County, from an escaped slave hanged for rape in 1768 at the Worcester jail to the Sutton choir singer convicted of drowning his wife in 1935. Henry Hammond’s 1899 suicide and the others that followed shook Spencer residents to their cores. Some crimes still grip the imaginations of residents, while others have faded from collective memory. Author Rachel Faugno investigates this sinister history. Includes photos!

Through real-life "conversion" stories, but set against the realistic background of what Pope John Paul II called our contemporary "culture of death," this book offers inspiration, encouragement, and a challenge to those interested in the respect life movement--especially in this outreach organization known as Helpers of God's Precious Infants--to become involved, whether as actual sidewalk counselors or through prayerful support. According to Msgr. James P. Lisante, pastor of St. Thomas the Apostle Church, West Hempstead, NY, as well as a TV commentator and author, "This book tells the story of those who are willing to be the voices of the voiceless, of people of such hope, faith, and love that they are willing to speak up even in the face of what would seem to be the most hopeless situation of all--the moment when a woman is actually about to enter an abortion clinic."
On March 31, 1943, the musical Oklahoma! premiered and the modern era of the Broadway musical was born. Since that time, the theatres of Broadway have staged hundreds of musicals--some more noteworthy than others, but all in their own way a part of American theatre history. With more than 750 entries, this comprehensive reference work provides information on every musical produced on Broadway since Oklahoma's 1943 debut. Each entry begins with a brief synopsis of the show, followed by a three-part history: first, the pre-Broadway story of the show, including out-of-town try-outs and Broadway previews; next, the Broadway run itself, with dates, theatres, and cast and crew, including replacements, chorus and understudies, songs, gossip, and notes on reviews and awards; and finally, post-Broadway information with a detailed list of later notable productions, along with important reviews and awards.
