 Sons of Martha (The Construction of the City of Old Hickory)
This article is from a chapter in a book published in 1928 by the Mason & Hanger Company. The book describes the 100-year history of the company that built Old Hickory in 1918 in a period of eight months and a day. The Mason & Hanger Company was the major contractor selected by the U. S. Government to construct the world's largest smokeless powder plant to support the Allies during World War I. This chapter, entitled "Old Hickory", describes the massive requirements of labor and material used to build the manufacturing plant and all of the supporting structures and facilities that became Old Hickory. |
