Excerpt from A Narrative of Hydraulic Cement Mined in the Lehigh Valley: With a Description of It's Use in the Early Days Some time ago in conversation with Hon. Frank M. Trexler, I casually stated that my father, Samuel Glace, erected the first mill and manufactured Natural Cement in the Lehigh Valley in 1826, when he stated that all books on the subject stated it was at Coplay in 1864, and that if I would write a sketch of the matter it would be an interesting contribution to local history.

America's portland cement industry began in the Lehigh Valley. The rich deposit of limestone known as the Jacksonburg Formation arcs through the valley from Berks County, Pennsylvania, to Warren County, New Jersey, and today it still provides the raw material for the Lehigh district's famous high-quality portland cement. Cement from the Lehigh Valley built America's skyscrapers, dams, and highways. The Lehigh Valley Cement Industry documents not only the quarries and cement mills but also the dozens of companies that sprang up to supply and support the industry. The photographs also tell the stories of the people who formed the cement communities—the entrepreneurs, executives, engineers, and immigrants whose legacies live on in the five multinational companies still making cement in the valley.
