Paperback. Zustand: VG. Reprint ed. The life of a town, as of individuals, is a treasury of experience, which results in social progress and improvement, and its real value depends, not on its length and breadth, but upon the character of its people, their integrity, industry, goodness and loyalty as individuals. A year ago the thought occurred to the compiler that a Souvenir Book of Woodbury, which should represent this historic own of New England and people, would be of interest to the present generations and to those who had been residents in other years. The letter of invitation desired historic reminiscences, descriptions of present locations, topics of interest and selected writings from present and former inhabitants of Woodbury. The replies received contained words of congratulation and pleasant recollections. Each response has been considered a valued treasure. All the events and writings included in these pages exist twice, at the time when they first occurred, and again as they are brought to mind for the plea 378 pages.
