Over Niagara Falls in a Barrel & the Dark Side of Textile Mills

Annie Edson Taylor became the first person to survive going over Niagara Falls in a barrel in 1901—but her stunt didn’t bring her the fame she expected. Meanwhile, children in Bibb Mill, Georgia, were working in dangerous conditions to keep the textile industry running. One woman risked it all for adventure, while a photographer exposed the truth of child labor. These are two sides of history you won’t forget.
