Book Trailer for The Mathews Family
I finally set aside some time to figure out how to make a Book Trailer. Since I'm already familiar with PowerPoint, I used it to create my video. I confess this was my third attempt, but I'm happy with the outcome. Please view it and let me know what you think!

Dr. Increase's Journal
In his 1798 journal, Increase wrote about touring the Newgate Prison in Simsbury, Connecticut. Last night I watched an old Season 3 episode of "Codes and Conspiracies". Near the end, they filmed the inside of Newgate which began as a prison in 1773 and continued until 1887. The prison portion was inside an abandoned copper mine. These men climbed down a wooden ladder to reach the mine level. Increase noted its depth as 70 feet. The program stated that the temperature down there was never higher than 56F.
From what Increase had described, I had already thought this place quite horrific, but actually seeing it...Oh my!
A transcript of Increase's actual journal is included within Dr. Increase: Mathews Family Saga Book 2
