The Biography of Timothy B. Blackstone is a book written by Ida Hinman and published in 1917. The book is a comprehensive account of the life of Timothy B. Blackstone, a prominent businessman and politician in 19th century America. Blackstone was born in Connecticut in 1829 and moved to Chicago in 1856, where he became involved in the city's growing transportation industry. He was instrumental in the development of the Chicago and Northwestern Railway, which helped to connect the Midwest with the rest of the country. Blackstone was also involved in politics, serving as a member of the Illinois State Senate and later as a U.S. Senator from Illinois. In addition to his business and political achievements, Blackstone was also a philanthropist and supporter of the arts. The book provides a detailed account of Blackstone's life, including his early years, his business and political career, and his personal life. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Chicago and the Midwest, as well as the development of American business and politics in the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
