Retired from an academic career in English history and American philanthropy, Snow offers a biography of his great grandfather, mostly based on Vernon's diaries during the middle 1800s. Vernon's father owned and operated an iron foundry in New York and he got into the trade young but moved to Illinois and labored as a skilled worker his whole career.
