Sobre este artículo
Boston, MA: Austin J. Coolidge, 1860. Early days in Caledonia County, VT, are recalled through a mix of colorful tales, factual data and trivia, in this booklet comprised of excerpts from three rare vintage books: The Geography and History of Vermont by S.R. Hall (1871); History and Description of New England - Vermont by A.J. Coolidge and J.B. Mansfield (1860); and Vermont, a Guide to the Green Mountain State, written by the Workers of the Federal Writer's Project of the WPA (1937). The 38 page booklet is printed single-sided on 60# opaque paper with the print size enlarged as needed to fit the 8 1/2 x 11 size. A vinyl sheet has been added to protect the front cover. A major part of the booklet consists of histories of each township (town), which vary in size depending on the prominence of the town and its historical significance. The towns and villages include Barnet, Burke, Danville, Groton, Hardwick, Kirby, Lyndon, Newark, Peacham, Ryegate, Sheffield, St. Johnsbury (shire town), Sutton, Walden, Waterford and Wheelock. Early settlers, physical features, industrial development, notable citizens, Hazen Military Road, Indian alarms and political events are among the topics in this booklet. The WPA excerpts include a section on St. Johnsbury, including points of interest. The other WPA excerpts, while not up-to-date as a tour guide, remain a fascinating source of historical tidbits. The booklet has a few illustrations, but their quality is only fair. . Limited Edition Reprint. Spiral/Comb . New/No Jacket. 8.5" x 11". Private Press.
