Of all of the Arcadia “Images of the Past” books on Haverhill, I think this one is my favorite. The photos not only show the people of Haverhill but they show the change in the city itself. The architecture shown in this book is worth the cover price alone. This book is one of many books written by Patricia Trainor O’Malley for Arcadia Publishing on Haverhill and Bradford. (Equally well done is the companion book on Bradford, also written by O’Malley.) Each book stands alone but together they are a testament to the citizens and history of Haverhill Massachusetts. The only faults in these books are a lack of index, which would have made the books more useful to researchers. ( ) aucune critique | ajouter une critique

In 1850, Haverhill, Massachusetts, was a small mercantile and farming town with slightly fewer than 6,000 residents. One half-century later, six times that many people called Haverhill home, and it had become an industrial center ranked as one of the top five shoe producers in the nation. The bustling downtown area featured buildings of uniform red-brick construction; elegant Victorian-style houses and new municipal buildings were erected; and civic pride was very evident. This was Haverhill's "Golden Age." Patricia Trainor O'Malley of Bradford College captures the exuberance and vitality of that era with more than 200 photographs from the Haverhill Public Library Special Collections. Included in this fascinating portrait are some of the oldest-known images of downtown Haverhill from the 1850s and 1860s. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
