WorksThe Crime of the Century: How the Brink's Robbers Stole Millions and the Hearts of Boston
You think you know the story of the Brink’s robbery (I know I did), but the truth is really stranger—and far more compelling—than Hollywood led us to believe. Stephanie Schorow does a wonderful job separating fact from fiction in this entertaining and riveting book. --David Kruh, author, Always Something Doing: Boston’s Infamous Scollay Square East of Boston: Notes from the Harbor Islands
coming soon Boston on Fire: A History of Fires and Firefighting in Boston
The details of fire-fighting operations, as well as many personal reflections of those involved, make for a book that anyone with a love of the fire service should cherish. It should also be most instructive to the general population, who know so little about what firefighters actually accomplish on their behalf. --Retired Boston fire commissioner Leo Stapleton, author of Thirty Years on the Line The Cocoanut Grove Fire
In this addition to the "New England Remembers" series, Stephanie Schorow continues her groundbreaking research into one of Boston's devastating fires, uncovering more evidence about a tragedy that is as controversial today as it was unthinkable in 1942. Boston's Fire Trail: A Walk through the City's Fire and Firefighting History
Based on an idea by Stephanie Schorow, Boston's Fire Trail weaves through the history of major fires in Boston. Written members of the Boston Fire Historical Society the book recounts the history of the Boston Fire Department by taking readers on a "walk" around the city. Schorow served as editor of the project. Published by The History Press. |
