Mill Power documents the making of a national park that changed the concept of what a national historical park could be.For a time in the 1800s; Lowell was Massachusettsrsquo;s cosmopolitan; must-see second city. The cityrsquo;s industrial model was as high-tech then as Silicon Valley is today. It drew the attention of luminaries like Charles Dickens; Congressmen Davy Crockett and Abraham Lincoln; feminist sociologist Harriet Martineau; and abolitionist Frederick Douglass. This insiderrsquo;s account of the creative; bold community-driven process to establish the park explains why today Lowell National Historical Park is renowned as ldquo;the partnership park.rdquo; The parkrsquo;s establishment was an integral piece of an urban revival strategy that has made Lowell the subject of scores of newspaper articles; magazine profiles; TV and radio reports; scholarly papers; and book chapters. Historic Preservation magazine has hailed the park as ldquo;the premier rehabilitation model for gritty cities worldwide.rdquo; The Lowell story has much to teach the mid-sized cities of the nation and the world. Mill Power frames the Lowell comeback in its historical context and brings together the people who dreamed; wrote; designed; pushed; and cheered a new national park into existence along with those who came after with the charges of shaping the ideas into material form. The volume features 100 photos; many of them showing the before-and-after story of this revitalization.
