This is a wonderful book for any photography, travel, or history enthusiast! From the state’s agricultural- “To a history major, old photos are always relevant—not to mention great fun! Besides studying the details or trying to identify the contraptions in these photos, however, I like them because they help illustrate the variability in Vermont’s history. It’s striking to see some of the early twentieth century photos, and realize that urban ills were living alongside rural struggles—that mill towns like Winooski were fighting population challenges while more rural areas like Kirby were trying to keep the farm afloat,” says author Gellman. Historic Photos of Vermont is part of Turner Publishing’s Historic Photos series. These books, highlighting the history of the great cities and legendary figures across America, have been acclaimed as a staple in the collection of anyone who loves history.
